All, I opened all the relevant PRs a few days ago. Please review and comment
if you haven't already (thanks for the feedback thus far).
I'd like to get these changes completed this week if possible.
All,
Updates and rebuilds of the affected packages have been completed in
rawhide and the side tag was merged in the last compose.
There are a few other packages still using sip 4 but they are not PyQt5
related, so they can be upgraded one at a time. I'll send some additional
PRs for those.
Please let me know if you see any problems, or feel free to CC me on bugs.
Thanks to @kevin for merging PRs and doing builds.
Scott
