Now that QtDesigner is running I can look at the rest of the build chain and I find that the programs listed in the subject (pyuic5, pyrcc5 and pylupdate5 ) are missing from python3-pyqt5. According to the docs on Sourceforge these should all be included in the upstream package. Has Debian split them off somewhere and not listed it as a Depends, or Recommends?
$ apt-file search pyuic5 pyqt5-dev-tools: /usr/bin/pyuic5 pyqt5-dev-tools: /usr/share/man/man1/pyuic5.1.gz To see what binary packages are built from the same source package as python3-pyqt5: 1. Get the source package name: $ apt-cache show python3-pyqt5 | grep ^Source: Source: pyqt5 2. Get all binary packages associated with it (the "tr" is for better readability): $ apt-cache showsrc pyqt5 | grep Binary: | tr ',' '\n' The reason Debian doesn't have a single binary package is that you don't actually need these tools to _use_ PyQt5, only to develop it. (Similarly to C/C++ development, where there also are separate development packages.) This way you can select what you want to install. Regards, Christian
