I think I got an idea about what is going on. Python sees the dependency 
on the subwheel, which isn't installed for Qt 6.7.0. Therefore it 
installs it before upgrading PyQt6-Webengine-Qt6. The update deletes 
'libQt6WebEngineCore.so.6', which was formerly included in the 
PyQt6-Webengine-Qt6 wheel, as part of uninstalling the old version and 
thereafter installs the new version. This causes the library to be 
missing after the update.

Can anybody confirm this suspicion?
