<p class="MsoNormal">Trying to run this in Python 3.13.7 with only PyQt6 installed, I get “Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (6.9.0) with this library (6.9.2)”. Replacing PyQt6 in the imports with PyQt5 works as expected on the other hand (after installing
PyQt5 of course). Am I doing something wrong, or is there a problem with the pre-built binaries?
