I am facing problem when I try to install PyQt(according to the following link https://www.metachris.com/2016/03/how-to-install-qt56-pyqt5-virtualenv-python3/).

I am able to install everything but got stuck for PyQt installation.For installation it showed me an error that I have to make a private copy of my sip module for the installation . I followed this link(Installing PyQt5 from sources: Unable to import PyQt5.sip) to make a private copy but got stuck with this error

python3 configure.py --sip-module private.sip
python3 configure.py -q /usr/bin/qmake-qt5 -n private.sip

It shows an error

configure.py: error: no such option: -q

Please suggest something.

  • To see the correct options, just run `python3 configure.py --help`. – ekhumoro Jul 30 '18 at 10:04
  • I run the following command but I do not see any '-q' command in any section of help. – Kushagra Pathak Jul 30 '18 at 11:13
  • Why would you expect to? You already got an error telling you there's no such option. So use the correct options instead. – ekhumoro Jul 30 '18 at 12:53
  • Even if I try to rum the commands available in help section. I get an error like this #Error: Unsupported macro name specified. Use the --show-build-macros flag to see a list of supported macros. – Kushagra Pathak Jul 31 '18 at 04:56
