`port install Frescobaldi2` completed with no errors,
BUT terminal output for the launch attempt indicates the Frescobaldi app
fails to launch due to a missing module:
{{{
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt4'

Terminal output for Frescobaldi2 launch attempt:

FULL terminal output IS ATTACHED for BOTH Frescobaldi2 port installation
AND Frescobaldi app launch attempt.
NOTE:
The Py2App website provides NO USEFUL HELP for debugging this launch
issue; just some cryptic text intended for people who do this every day
and ALREADY know what to do.
For example, on the Py2App page "Debugging application
building"(https://py2app.readthedocs.io/en/latest/debugging.html), only
this cryptic text below is offered with NO INDICATION at all PRECISELY HOW
one is supposed to actually use the suggested context-free, example-free,
effectiveness-free suggestion to "use --includes or --packages" to "add
the missing module to the application."
{{{
Some common problems are:

code analyzer, either due to dynamic imports (using __import__() or
importlib to load a module), or due to imports in a C extension.
In both cases use --includes or --packages to add the missing module to

I have absolutely NO IDEA what a Py2App "import statement" is, or
precisely what Py2App is trying (in its maximally ineffective manner) to
tell me to do here in order to resolve my Frescobaldi launch failure.
None.
Nor does any of this, as far as I know, have anything to do with "a
project on PyPI," whatever that is, so the clear implication of the Py2App
text above is that I'm definitely NOT to file a bug on Py2App's Github
site since none of this is needed for a PyPI project, whatever that is.
I could find absolutely nothing on the Py2App website that would help me
resolve this Frescobaldi port launch issue.
Help please.

Comment:
For me, on macOS 12, the app launches, but the Music View on the right of
the main window displays only the message "Could not load the
[https://github.com/frescobaldi/python-poppler-qt4 popplerqt4] module."
