Version 5.15.4 of PyQt5 was released on the 10th of March, it appears to work just fine with python3_10. If possible, please add this version and python3_10 support when you have time. Note that this release appears to have dropped support for dev-qt/qtnetworkauth. See Also: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/21037

Andrew, you went ahead and merged your changes just 10 hours after opening this bug... how about you wait a little longer next time, ideally for an ack from a maintainer? There is a potential problem with the major version bump of sip... it's a delicate package and known to have incompatibilities. Did you actually check if the in-tree reverse dependencies still build? Also, my plan was to add sip v5 and v6 as separate SLOTs...

Are you kidding me? Adding py3.10 support is *urgent* now? It just entered the beta phase... Moreover, I added py3.10 support to sip 4.x a couple of days ago.
Please mask sip-5 ASAP.

I just checked all reverse dependencies, and added restrictions where necessary. Do you still want me to mask this?
And just for the record, I actually *did* check the ABI number of the new version beforehand, which is also 12, same as the 4.x.y series. Though it does indeed appear that some packages fail to build with the 5.x.y series regardless. I would have appreciated at least *some* comment about this when I asked on IRC, when I opened the PR, or when I opened this bug. Though I do understand that the short time span made this somewhat difficult, for which I apologize (though as I said, I was actually planning on waiting a bit more, but then Sam asked me to just merge it now). Anyway, things are fixed now, so I hope all is good again.

Let's try coordinate a bit more. qt@ is short staffed and Andrew is generally pretty happy to help with things. Not volunteering him to join necessarily, but it's not easy to read minds either. It's way easier to talk about things like this on IRC if you're able to in future. (Note that we're on Libera now -- email me to set up a cloak if you haven't already). He's also brand new (joined within the last week or two) and I asked him to merge this urgently given the below. I'm sorry we didn't wait longer for feedback and I take the blame here. If he hadn't merged it when he did, I would've about an hour later when I had my keys. But Andrew (and of course myself) have an interest in things working too, not just bumping because "new and shiny version". From my perspective: an important package lacked Python 3.9 by the deadline (which had been warned about for some time on the mailing lists) and there was an available PR to merge which fixed that (which included changes to some of its dependencies) by someone who had tested it out. Options were to wait and get a large number of duplicate bug reports from very frustrated users or merge with best-effort testing.

Not really a valid excuse. Moreover, if all you wanted was to add py3.10, you could have added it to the existing versions, a major version bump was completely orthogonal and unnecessary. > > > Please mask sip-5 ASAP. > > I just checked all reverse dependencies, and added restrictions where > necessary. Do you still want me to mask this? No, I guess that's no longer necessary. Thanks for reacting quickly and checking the reverse deps.

Yeah the problem with this bump is not the ABI but the fact that the sip build system (which is used by some packages depending on sip) was completely rewritten. Moreover, >=dev-python/sip-5 no longer installs an extension module, now each sip-based binding has to provide its own (private) module. > I would have appreciated at least *some* comment about this when > I asked on IRC, when I opened the PR, or when I opened this bug. I don't think many people are familiar with sip. I would've commented if you gave me a bit more time :)

To be clear, I don't mind the help and I'm generally not very "overprotective" over the packages I maintain. In fact, I wasn't even complaining about the whole PR, e.g., the PyQt5 bump was totally fine and Andrew did a good job overall. All I'm saying is that pushing through a major version bump (sip) within hours of the bug being opened was totally unnecessary. [1] recommends between 2 and 4 weeks of waiting time (and really, 2 weeks are more than enough IMHO).

Again, sip and PyQt5 have supported py3.9 since a year ago, so I'm confused by your comment. I don't know anything about pyside2 since I don't maintain it, but what does it have to do with a sip version bump? FYI, PyQt and pyside are two completely separate and independent set of bindings.
> Moreover, if all you wanted was to add py3.10, you could have added it to the existing versions, a major version bump was completely orthogonal and unnecessary. Yes, that would have been possible. And in hindsight this was the better option in this case. Usually I try to combine adding python_targets with a version bump, because that saves a rebuild, though had I know about the fragility of sip I would of course not have done that here. > Hope I didn't scare you ;) Not at all, your reply was completely understandable given the amount of mess sip-5 created, for which I am sorry. > What package are you referring to? python3_9 was added to sip about a year ago dev-python/pyside2 and Bug 780375 which had been open for about 2 months with no reply. It was causing a mess since py3.9 became the default target (and it is still causing a bit of a mess that could have been noticed and fixed earlier if the PYTHON_COMPAT had been bumped earlier: Bug 793962 ) > I don't know anything about pyside2 since I don't maintain it, but what does it have to do with a sip version bump? FYI, PyQt and pyside are two completely separate and independent set of bindings. The link linking this and dev-python/pyside2 is dev-python/QtPy which is the abstraction layer for PySide2 and PyQt5. Differences in PYTHON_TARGETS and other USE flags between the ebuild for PyQt5 and PySide2 are causing difficulties in maintaining QtPy: Bug 792861 ). So I bumped all the things in one PR to make my life a lot easier.
