After 'pip3 install --upgrade QScintilla' all works fine. Thank you!

Did you update QScintilla with 'pip3 install --upgrade QScintilla'? Upgrading PyQt5 doesn't force a QScintilla upgrade and this could lead to the observation. If after doing so the issue is gone, please close this report.

I upgraded Pyqt5 by using pip3 install --upgrade pyqt5. After that Eric6 failed to start with the following message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Werner\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Lib\site- packages\eric6\eric6.pyw", line 14, in <module> main() File "C:\Users\Werner\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Lib\site- packages\eric6\eric6.py", line 295, in main if not Globals.checkBlacklistedVersions(): File "C:\Users\Werner\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\Lib\site- packages\eric6\Globals\__init__.py", line 145, in checkBlacklistedVersions from PyQt5.Qsci import QSCINTILLA_VERSION_STR ValueError: PyCapsule_GetPointer called with incorrect name
