If there are missing .pyd files then your Qt installation doesn't contain the corresponding libraries.

What do you mean by "use > your > existing Qt installation"? copying it manually to the virtualenv? You don't copy your Qt installation, PyQt (when build from sources) will use it where it is. >> That depends on when the fixed version of Qt is released. >> > > Actually, that's another question I'd like to ask you, what do you mean > by > "fixed version of Qt is released"? > When developing pyqt, are you just using official packages from here > https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/ > instead building yourself the Qt repos at some specific commit hash?
