Comment:

 it's probably related to the files in {{{PyQt5-5.14.2/sip/QtNetwork}}}
 where it uses the the headers ({{{qssl.h}}} from the {{{qt5-qtbase}}}
 port.

 But since {{{qt5-qtbase}}} says that it uses the {{{OpenSSLException}}}
 because of "# for OpenSSLException, see source and header files in
 src/network/ssl of qtbase". I see no obvious reason why using these
 headers in {{{PyQt5}}} would then not qualify for the
 {{{OpenSSLException}}}; but I'm not a lawyer and don't claim to understand
 these things.... Perhaps Marcus has some insights here as he has looked at
 this more closely for the {{{qt5}}} ports?

 Finally, the port isn't updated all that often so building from source
 every now and then isn't too bad, but I agree that it would be nice to
 resolve.
