    Hello,
    I have just installed Inkcut on Linux Mint 20.1 Cinnamon but I am not able to run it through the command line/terminal.
    When I type in "inkcut" I get the below error. What am I missing? I have also attached the only log file that has anything in it.

    Sorry, an error prevented Inkcut from starting
    This is either a bug or a required library may be missing on your system. As always you can request help on the forums at inkcut.org.
    First try to restart the application. If the error persists you can try clearing the saved settings in /home/jesse/.config/inkcut and restart the application again.
    If that still doesn't work please report a new issue at github.com/codelv/inkcut with the following error:
    plugin = manifest.factory()
    File "/home/jesse/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/inkcut/preview/manifest.enaml", line 24, in plugin_factory
    from .plugin import PreviewPlugin
    File "/home/jesse/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/inkcut/preview/plugin.py", line 12, in

    ImportError: cannot import name 'sip' from 'PyQt5' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/init.py)
    and include the logs from /home/jesse/.config/inkcut/logs.

    Thanks for any help

    This solved the problem for me:
    pip3 install pyqt5==5.14.0
