Hello, I=E2=80=99ve noticed something unusual about the = PyQt5-5.15.0-5.15.0-cp35.cp36.cp37.cp38-abi3-manylinux2014_x86_64.whl = wheel that is served by PyPi. If you install it on Ubuntu 20.04 (py3.8) or Ubuntu 18.04(py3.6) it = seems to be ok, but if you install it on Ubuntu 16.04 (py3.5) it does = not install the Qt/plugin/ or Qt/translations/ folder like it does for = the other Python versions. This leads to runtime errors when you try to use PyQt5: qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even = though it was found. This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be = initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. I checked the PyQt5-5.14.2 wheel on Ubuntu 16.04 (py3.5) and it did = install the plugins and translations, so this looks like a regression. Regards, Steve Borho=
