Writing lock file

Installing the current project: androguard (4.1.1)

This is because PyQT5-qt5 has been releasing whls on PyPi for ONLY macosx arm64 and x64 for some reason. The previous fix I made constrained the PyQT5-Qt5 package in poetry to {version = "^5.15,!=5.15.11,!=5.15.12",!=5.15} . This "fix" made the assumption the future 5.15.13 would fix this by including linux/windows whls. Well, 5.15.13 was just released, and only contains the macos whls again...so we should lock this dependency strictly to 5.15.2 for a while I think.

I tested the below and was able to install again using poetry install:

pyproject.toml

...
networkx = "*"
PyQt5 = "*"
PyQt5-Qt5 = {version = "5.15.2"}
...

Related to #985 (comment) which stemmed from this: python-poetry/poetry#8540.

Looks like there was a very recent release of PyQt5-qt5: https://pypi.org/project/PyQt5-Qt5/#history

I have generated a PR with this fix: #1019

Oh thx dude! May I ask would there be a hot fix release like 4.1.2? That would be a great help to all the users :)

Will release another patch version in the coming days

It seems like even lock down to pyqt5-qt5 5.15.2, it still fails on apple silicon environment. Linux x86_64 is ok though

[ehrenb]

Ok, this should be resolvable by installing the "right" version based on a platform condition. For example, when sys_platform == 'darwin' and (platform_machine == 'arm64' or platform_machine == 'x86_64'), we should be safe to install the latest version of pyqt5-qt5, otherwise we need to use the older version. I don't have an ARM MacOS machine to test this on.

Could you try cloning and running poetry install on this forked branch https://github.com/ehrenb/androguard/tree/pyqt5-qt5-fix and share the output?
