Fwd: ANN: PyQt6-6.7.0-1 Wheels Available

[Phil Thompson]

Yes, it's missing new dependencies. The backends in Qt v6.7 depend on 
new libs which are missing from the Qt wheels.

Qt v6.7.2 is due to be released at the end of next week so I'l wait for 
that rather than upload new v6.7.1 wheels.

Thanks,
Phil
