Hi Will, You need a GPL-compatible license for your plugin which uses PyQt. This could be GPL (of course) but also BSD-3-Clause or Apache License.
By the way, PyMOL also works with PySide (which is LGPL). So strictly speaking, your plugin will not depend on PyQt, you could always set up Open-Source PyMOL with PySide and use that instead. The compatibility module is pymol.Qt (do "from pymol.Qt import QtWidgets" instead of "from PyQt5 import QtWidgets"). Hope that helps.
