Description
I followed the contributors guide and set up the dev environment without anaconda. Generally works, except for a small problem in
python -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
which fails with
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyqt
pyqt is not known on PyPI and I resolved the problem by replacing it with pyqt5, i.e. with the following patch:

Subject: [PATCH] BUG: requirements-dev: Could not find ... pyqt
As of today 'pyqt' is not a valid PyPI project.
This results in the error message
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyqt
when running
python -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
from the contributors guide.

But that does not pass CI because of
requirements-dev.txt(,): error : `requirements-dev.txt` has to be generated with `ci/../scripts/generate_pip_deps_from_conda.py` after `environment.yml` is modified.
From here I am "giving up" but I would at least like to leave this report.
