  • I recommend you edit your post so that you indicate that you use macos, if you do, I will reopen your post. – eyllanesc Oct 03 '21 at 06:39

  • try with: `python -m pip install pyqt5 --only-binary pyqt5` – eyllanesc Oct 03 '21 at 06:42
  • Using the only binary command it is giving me this error: ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyqt5 (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for pyqt5 – siddhant srivastava Oct 03 '21 at 06:44
