Ah, my mistake: on lines 17-20 of /usr/share/anki/aqt/qt.py, it
attempts to import PyQt5.sip:
try:
from PyQt5 import sip
except ImportError:
import sip
But this import is protected by a "try/except" structure, so the
ModuleNotFoundError, which is a subclass of ImportError, should have
been caught, and the code should have proceeded with "import sip".
Hmmm.
