So I finally upgraded my stable Anki 2.0.x (which was deleted from portage tree some time ago), and was greeted with completely broken app. On start, Anki successfully syncs the database, opens main view with decks, but spews Python exception in its own custom window when you try to do pretty much anything: Anki 2.1.13 (3ba55990) Python 3.6.5 Qt 5.12.3 PyQt 5.10.1 Platform: Linux Flags: frz=False

I'd suggest trying again with dev-python/PyQt5-5.12.2, it's stable after all. It should always be safe to use a later PyQt5 with a minor-matching or earlier Qt, but there's no guarantee for it working the other way around.
> I'd suggest trying again with dev-python/PyQt5-5.12.2, it's stable after all. app-misc/anki-2.1.13 requires dev-python/PyQt5[webengine], but dev-python/PyQt5-5.12.2 has no webengine use flag. In fact, when I emerged Anki, this very constraint caused a downgrade from dev-python/PyQt5-5.12.2 to dev-python/PyQt5-5.10.1-r1 on my system.
So I did 'emerge --depclean', which removed dev-python/PyQt5-sip-4.19.17 (and nothing else, dev-python/sip-4.19.17 had been installed before and remained so) and Anki mysteriously started to work. Just out of curiousity, I reinstalled dev-python/PyQt5-sip, and Anki broke again. Removed, works again. What's going on? Is it related to bug 689514?
oh, you're using an older PyQt5 with PyQt5-sip still installed. I didn't consider that scenario (downgrades). What I think is happening is that the "import sip" statements in PyQt5 will prefer the (still installed) private PyQt5.sip module which is not compatible with older PyQt5 versions. We need a blocker.
