SOLVED Frescobaldi does not start in clean Mg 6 installation

Today I installed Mageia 6 64-bits on a friend's computer with a clean install. After installing Frescobaldi I got this error in Konsole:

[martha@localhost ~]$ frescobaldi
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/bin/frescobaldi", line 7, in <module>
import main
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/frescobaldi_app/main.py", line 33,
in <module>
from PyQt5.QtCore import QSettings, QTimer, QUrl
ImportError: No module named 'PyQt5'
[martha@localhost ~]$


I cannot deduce from this error which package has not been installed during the installation or as a dependency.

Can somebody tell me which extra package I need?

Greetings,

Erik

See https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21344 you probably need some of the python3-qt5 libraries.

Dear Doktor,

I read the bug and since I could not make out which file(s) to install from the depositories I looked for something plausible on rpmfind.net with "python3-qt5". I found "python3-qt5-5.6-8.mga6.x86_64.rpm". I installed this file; it needed a lot of dependencies. Now Frescobaldi starts up as expected. So the missing file(s) must be among all those I installed.

Thank you for your help.

Greetings,

Erik.

Please don't look up Mageia packages on rpmfind.net, you can either use urpmf or urpmq or rpmdrake for that.
