Description Oliver Freyermuth 2017-09-11 16:02:42 UTC

Current version features PyQt5 support, since upstream has become active again. 

Sadly, there are still no releases, so one has to create a new tarball and mirror it.

Best would be to kindly ask upstream, if it is possible to tag releases.
As last resort one can take the tar ball per commit. 
Look at the sys-apps/inxi ebuild for an example.

I have asked that question here:
