it is now part of the "Qt5 Core Compatibility APIs" but I don't find any such import package, nor any mention in the Qt6 differences page (<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.riverbankcomputing.com_static_Docs_PyQt6_pyqt5-5Fdifferences.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=1ZsH6C42INob54FVVIhW8Q&r=BV4yYmvfAONNbcOq2Xw785ECqQ68Bmf55ewm35kjAYeGcCfXZn48383lslVVcqd2&m=P0Grxcv5taADConsUTfDLdxp9Kyk4wvcdyeLVtu8trHach0qR_x0KL7yNY9kk0iH&s=7ViTDbb2SbCJhPyjuoB4CKe5sF3cy-1SKsSufdWFbs8&e=">https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt6/pyqt5_differences.html</a>).<o:p></o:p></p>
