Thanks for the clarification. I filed these bugs semi-automatically and
did not check each package carefully enough. Indeed there is no issue here,
as the sip import is used only for PyQt4.

Can you please remove the python3-sip dependency then? PyQt5 in unstable
depends on python3-sip itself, and for the new PyQt5 this dependency will
be not needed.
