OK

OK. I got sip-4.3.1.

Not OK:

[root at localhost software]# rpmbuild --rebuild PyQt-3.15-1.src.rpm
Installing PyQt-3.15-1.src.rpm
error: Failed build dependencies:
         sip-devel >= 4.3.1 is needed by PyQt-3.15-1.i386

Note that this is the version I built, and the output from
that build indicates that the version number is 4.3.1.
