I am currently trying to run labelImg on my mac m1pro. When trying to install qt5 with "pip3 install pyqt5 lxml" i get this error message:

` Collecting PyQt5 Using cached PyQt5-5.15.7.tar.gz (3.2 MB) Installing build dependencies ... done Getting requirements to build wheel ... done Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

  During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. error: metadata-generation-failed

Does anyone know the solution to this? When i try to install it with brew i get the following error at the point of "make qt5py3":

pyrcc5 -o libs/resources.py resources.qrc /Users/xxx/miniforge3/bin/python3: No module named PyQt5.pyrcc_main make: *** [qt5py3] Error 1

I wanted to install labelImg on my m1pro
