I got it working by setting up a venv with '--system-site-packages' and
your wheel for Linux on ARM. It seems, that the PyQt6-WebEngine wheel
(or its sub wheel) is incomplete. Executing a

from PyQt6 import QtWebEngineWidgets

yields

ImportError: libwebp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory
