PyInstaller doesn't support the latest PyQt5 version yet. So I had to restrict it to the one before. Please use that.

[JackDinn]

Sorry, i dont know how?

[m3nu]

This works on a fresh install. Sorry for the trouble. Sometimes we have to limit the version of Qt. It's not the first time.

$ pip uninstall PyQt5-Qt5 PyQt5-Qt PyQt5
$ pip install 'pyqt5<=5.15.3'

[JackDinn]

Well yes it did work for vorta, thank you for that :)

It has made a bit of a mess to all my own pyqt GUI's for my app's/scripts, its made all the controls (buttons and tabs) go grey. I can live with the different themes for them, they are not to much different. I have tinkered with KDE theming, but I can't figure how to get them back how they were, i don't have the time atm, just glad vorta is working again.

[snuffop]

The problem here is calibre and qutebrowser work fine and requre the latest 5.15.4 yet vorta fails..

[m3nu]

I got a segmentation fault using PyQt5 5.15.4. If you know how to avoid this, please share it with us or open a pull request, @snuffop 🙏

[Eeems]

For those wondering about PyQt5 5.15.4 support in pyinstaller, it's been merged (pyinstaller/pyinstaller#5631) but there hasn't been a new release that includes it yet.

[damentz]

I modified Vorta's requires.txt [1] file to not require pyqt5<=5.15.3 on my system, and it runs fine with 5.15.4. Maybe the segmentation fault is coming from something else?

For reference, I run Arch, all latest packages as of this post.

[jose1711]

No segfaults with 5.15.4 either (Arch here as well). @damentz Thanks for sharing!

[m3nu]

Did a new release which pins PyQt5 only for PyInstaller builds, since it's not strictly needed for other deployments.
