Hi Antoine,

sorry for your intermediate role, that was not intended by me.

However, I did not simply take your patch without investigation -- I did
take a look at pyqt5 and found the changelog entry about the convenience
code copy of sip. For me, that was a good enough reason why the sip copy
in pyqt5 had not been used.

Furthermore, I tried to run rapid-photo-downloader 0.9.12 with your
patch applied, and I cannot see any problem. The program seems to work
just fine in a current sid chroot. Therefore, I'm downgrading this bug.

Hopefully we can investigate further if we get some new information.

Regards,
Tobias
