short term I am busy with python packages for 3.12  and the segfault
in testing that blocs 3.12.14 release.

The Qt5 python packages can stay at the end

python-pyqt5	Python Qt5 bindings (source)
python-pyqt5-qt3d	Python Qt3D bindings (source)
python-pyqt5-qtchart	Python QtCharts bindings (source)
python-pyqt5-qtdatavisualization	Python QtDataVisualization bindings 
(source)

The other packages like Octave, Lyx will follow after the Python deployment.
