Errors while installing python bindings

[afernandez]

Hi Phil,
I had previously tried pip with a very similar outcome:
Collecting QScintilla
Using cached QScintilla-2.13.3.tar.gz (1.7 MB)
Installing build dependencies ... done
Getting requirements to build wheel ... done
Preparing wheel metadata ... error

Something is clearly not clicking but I'm unsure how to proceed.
Thanks,

Hello,
After installing PyQt v5.15.6 with pip and QScintilla_src-2.13.3 with
qmake, the installation of the python bindings is returning the
following errors:
sip-install:

I'm not even sure how to begin troubleshooting any of these error
messages. Did I even install PyQt5 correctly? Thanks.
If you are installing PyQt with pip why not install QScintilla in the same 
way?
Phil
