I’ve tried many different approaches, but the dead end I’m at now is trying to follow this guide. The build log looks like it has an issue with siplib, but I’ve reinstalled sip and python-sip and I get the same error.

the build log is too long for pastebin and I can’t attach files, but this is the last part where it failed.
I’m using python 3.12.4 if that’s relevant.
