QScintilla installation on Python results in broken PyQt5

[Kristof Mulier]

I've installed the latest version of QScintilla on Python, in the following way:

> pip install qscintilla

Unfortunately, things go very wrong... You can find all the details on this StackOverflow question. Any help is greatly appreciated:

Have you tried the official Qt platform/bindings? I haven't used it with
Python, but the C++ API works fine with Qt5.

Thank you Matthew.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do that (in Python).

You may want to ask on the pyqt list at py...@riverbankcomputing.com I
think this is a PyQt installation issue.

Cheers,

John

Hi jpe,

You were right. It had something to do with the PyQt installation done by Anaconda.

Solution is here:

Thank you very much :-)
