[Python-modules-team] Bug#948112: python3-pyqt5: Unstable python3-pyqt5 Is Not Installable With libqt5qui5-gles Installed

[Ron Lovell]

Package: python3-pyqt5
Version: 5.13.2+dfsg-1
Severity: important

Currently in Sid the python3-pyqt5 package has deps:
    libqt5gui5 (>= 5.1.0)
    libqt5gui5 (>= 5.12.2) | libqt5qui5-gles (>= 5.12.2)

I recently performed the tranition from libqt5gui5 to the -gles variant
just to try it out. I had to remove python3-pyqt5 and and its dependents
(e.g. python3-qtconsole). I expected it might take a while to complete
the ongoing transition, and in fact in the transition tracking web
page pyqt5 still shows as in progress (or whatever orange means). But
after looking over the transition Bug #919218, especially the comments
about a similar dependency in libqt5quick5, I'm wondering if there's
going to be a resolution soon for python3-pyqt5.  If so, I can wait. If
not, I need to go back to libqt5gui5 so I can have jupyter qtconsole.

If I'm just being too impatient (we did just celebrate the holidays),
my apologies.
