Description alfr0451 2021-11-08 02:56:22 UTC 
As mentioned in the postinst section of media-sound/pulseaudio-15.0-r1, qpaeq needs dev-python/PyQt5. PyQt5 got depcleaned here and now invoking qpaeq fails with exit status 255 and the following lines:

There was an error importing needed libraries
Make sure you have qt5 and dbus-python installed
The error that occurred was:
	No module named 'PyQt5'

Reproducible: Always

It's an optional runtime dependency. We do not add optional runtime dependencies to RDEPEND.
