Description of problem: I can't launch picard Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.4.2.fc29 How reproducible: Always Additional info: Using terminal I get the error : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.sip' but I have python3-pyqt5 installed, and even python3-pyqt5-sip (which isn't required by picard rpm, by the way) with sip.pyi & sip.so being installed in folder /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/PyQt5/. and /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages is one of the folders looked after by python3, as says to me the command python3 -c "import sys; print(sys.path)"
I couldn't replicate this bug in my environment with the package, but I built picard-2.1-1.fc29 in this pull request: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/picard/pull-request/3 It may help to retry with an updated version of Picard. If a Fedora maintainer could review the PR and merge it if it looks good, that would be awesome.

Thank you for this try. using updates-testing, I updated picard to 2.1.0-1.fc29.x86_64, but I still got the same error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.sip' the only difference in the error message is the line where the call to the PyQt5 module is done in /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/picard/tagger.py exactly the full message is now : Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/picard", line 2, in <module> from picard.tagger import main; main('/usr/share/locale', True) File "/usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/picard/tagger.py", line 33, in <module> from PyQt5 import ( ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.sip' Giving additional information, the last functional try was before my upgrade from F28 t F29 : the switch from python2 to python3 in picard isn't the only suspect Since then, i also tried typing "python3 /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/picard/tagger.py" and it gave me the same error. I'm not a programmer at all, but I looked in tagger.py, and It gave me less understanding of the error : there's no call directly to a module sip from PyQt5 (especially on line 33, on picard-2.1) By the way, looking at the modules called on line 33 their name suggests they're pretty basic : If you know about a fedora package of a python program using them, I can test it, to see if it's more a PyQt5 than a picard problem.

I don't believe this really has anything to do with picard - but rather your particular system, especially since Justin wasn't able to reproduce - and I can't either. I'm assuming your system is up-to-date, but let's check a few things: rpm -qa | grep pyqt my system reports: python2-pyqt5-sip-4.19.13-3.fc29.x86_64 python3-pyqt5-sip-4.19.13-3.fc29.x86_64 what does your system show?
My system reports the same as you to the command rpm -qa | grep pyqt So I tried to uninstall python3-pyqt5-sip-4.19.13-3.fc29.x86_64 gave me a list of dependent packages: I tried some and none of them worked, giving me the same error. Then I went through all the places looked after by python3, and I found another install of PyQt5-5.11.3 on folder /usr/local/lib64/python3.7/site-packages. it is reviewed by python before /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages, and it don't have sip in it : renaming it allowed me to launch picard and everything else. So the problem is solved, and I apologize for the time wasted. Apparently I can set status to CLOSED, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to, so I'll wait for one of you to tell me
No worries. I'm assuming that you've always used DNF or package updater for your updates... if that is the case, you may want to clean it up by renaming back to the original name, do a DNF remove to get rid of the extraneous packages and then re-install to make sure you have the correct things going forward and the DNF database is accurate. Don't close this report, once the upgrade finishes that process will close it out.
Ok Thanks to both of you
