PyQt5 has a dependency sip

When you `pip uninstall pyqt5` it does not uninstall sip.

You can do that with `pip uninstall sip`

> The problem is, unless that sip dependency is manually removed, any
attempt to use PyQt5 results in python3 segfaulting.

If you just uninstalled PyQt5 then you won't be able to use it.
