[Slackbuilds-users] PyQt5 and sip

Seeking to update installed packages based on Saturday's list and using
sbopkg I hit an issue with PyQt5. It wants sip > 4.19 and did not find it.
Yet when I queried /var/log/packages for sip packages it returned:
python2-sip-4.19.20-x86_64-4_SBo
python3-sip-4.19.20-x86_64-1_SBo
sip-4.18-x86_64-1

I assume the plain sip is for python2 but the SBo packages should be used by
those applications wanting a newer version than the distribution one. What
am I missing?
