Help required for packaging Krita 4.3.0 for Void Linux

Develop
1

Hi, I started using Krita two days ago. With the new release out, I figured I should try to update it to the latest version but have hit some small roadblocks.

This is the pull request on Github which lists some of the issues I have been facing. I mainly need help with 1.

On startup, currently I get this error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sip'

This doesn’t stop Krita from functioning and the pre-installed plugins seem to work fine as well. Installing the package python3-sip stops this error message from appearing. I noticed that the appimage comes bundled with the folder usr/share/sip which in Void Linux are provided by the package python-PyQt5-devel in the folder /usr/share/sip/PyQt5.

So my questions are as follows:

  1. What are the implications of the error message?
  2. Should I be listing python-PyQt5-devel as a dependency?

Any help is appreciated. If my questions are a bit vague, it is because of my inexperience with the software so please don’t mind it.

Thanks for reading.
