Just want to add that QRegularExpression is in Qt5, so you should be able to use that and have it work with ChimeraX 1.3 and the daily builds. QRegExp was a different thing and apparently, they phased it out in Qt6. Hopefully, you don't need to make too many changes, as QRegExp and QRegularExpression are somewhat different.

Hi again,

I am indeed running a daily build on that computer.

I tried your suggestion and it works partially but there are some issues.

For instance I am getting:

cannot import name 'QRegExp' from 'Qt.QtCore'

And I am also not sure how to set this up with pycharm as there is no module actually named just Qt. Which means I am getting red squiggles all over and it breaks the autocomplete.

I am also curious as to why adding PyQt5 to the dependencies doesn't work.

Is the other computer running a ChimeraX daily build? They are looking to switch to PyQt6 in one of the next versions. A ChimeraX developer would have more details on that.

Try changing your PyQt5 imports to just "Qt" (e.g. from Qt.QtWidgets import QPushButton). ChimeraX uses a shim to make things less dependent on the version of the Python Qt wrapper.

Best,

Tony

Hi,

I was attempting to install my chimerax bundle on a different computer and encountered the error:

No module named 'PyQt5'

So I added this line to the bundle_info.xml under the Dependencies tag:

<Dependency name="PyQt5"/>

But I still get the same error?
