py39-pyqt5-webengine 5.15.4_0 and py39-pyqt5-chart 5.15.4_0: Unable to upgrade neither py39-pyqt5-webengine nor py39-pyqt5-chart

[JD-Veiga]

Hi,

I am not able to upgrade neither py39-pyqt5-webengine nor py39-pyqt5-chart.

The problem is quite similar to one that I have been in the past related to Python 3.8 (See #60741). Now, I have upgraded Python 3.8 py38-pyqt5-webengine and py38-pyqt5-chart without any inconvenience but not Python 3.9 corresponding ports.

py39-pyqt5-chart fails because:

sip: Unable to find file "QtGui/QtGuimod.sip"

while py39-pyqt5-webengine fails because:

sip: Unable to find file "QtCore/QtCoremod.sip"

Of course, both QtGui/QtGuimod.sip and QtCore/QtCoremod.sip can be found in:

• /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/share/sip/PyQt5/QtGui/QtGuimod.sip and
• /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/share/sip/PyQt5/QtCore/QtCoremod.sip.

My system is:

macos Mojave 10.14.6 (18G8022)
MacPorts 2.6.4

The installed ports are:

py39-pyqt5-chart @5.15.2_0
py39-pyqt5-webengine @5.15.2_0

The output of sudo port -v upgrade py39-pyqt5-webengine is:

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Still having the same problem.

Meanwhile I have tried a clean installation (just removing py38-pyqt5-webengine, py38-pyqt5-chart, and their dependencies. It fails too.

[JD-Veiga]

Finally, I re-installed macports from zero (following migration instructions ​https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration) in order to build last versions of py38-pyqt5-webengine and py38-pyqt5-chart.

Re-installing py38-pyqt5-webengine and py38-pyqt5-chart using restore_ports script fails, so I suspect that other ports are possibly conflicting with pyqt5 ports (I cannot build qscintilla support for py-qt5 either).

So, the solution was installing py38-pyqt5-chart and py38-pyqt5-webengine first via sudo port -v install py38-pyqt5-webengine py38-pyqt5-chart. Then I installed all remaining ports via sudo ./restore_ports.tcl myports.txt.

It takes more time than simply upgrade py38-pyqt5-webengine and py38-pyqt5-chart but works.

I have found a better and simpler solution.

I have noticed that the installation tries to use bindings stored in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5/bindings directory (currently installing for Python 3.9 with similar issues). That directory is empty since bindings are installed in the parent directory /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5.

Simply deleting /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5/bindings solved the problem and py*-pyqt5-* were installed without further difficulties.

I've switched the building of this port to use upstream's recommended way using pyqt-builder and updated to the latest sip version as well. Hopefully this will resolve (some of) the issues described in this ticket. Please give it a try to update and report back here. It builds fine on ​the buildbot for macOS 10.4, so I'd hope it is all good now...

[JD-Veiga]

I have upgraded all p39-pyqt* ports last night on a macos Mojave 10.14.6 (18G9323) without any problem.

Thanks a lot.
