Thanks! Maybe retitle that to “Please migrate to the new SIP 5/6 buildsystem”?

That will work only if upstream migrates to the new buildsystem *before*
I package sip6 for Debian.

Because SIP 5 and 6 won't be co-installable, I will probably rename sip5
source package to (simply) sip, and update it to a new upstream version
when SIP 6 is released.

But I guess in the worst case you will be able to revert back to SIP 4
if the SIP 6 port cannot be done for some reason.
