Krita. It declares

[tool.sip.project]
...
abi-version = "12"

in its pyproject.toml [1], and after building with SIP 6.15 the Python bindings fail to load with

krita.scripting: "RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v12.0 to v12.17 but the PyKrita.krita module requires API v12.18" 
krita.scripting: "Could not import krita"
