I filed a ticket on this issue already and included a logfile for it, but I
thought there's no harm in asking the mailing list for a quick solution...

I upgraded to macports 2.6.0 today. During a routine upgrade of my
ports, the py36-pyqt5 port failed to configure, possibly due to a
problem with the recent XCode 11 upgrade...?

>From logfile:

Project ERROR: Could not resolve SDK Path for 'macosx10.14' using
--show-sdk-path


This is the first time something like this has happened. No problems before
the XCode 11 upgrade.

I upgraded to XCode 11 a few days ago, and as someone else pointed out,
XCode removed the MacOS10.14.sdk and replaced it with MacOS10.15.sdk.
What I did to try and resolve it was create a MacOSX10.14.sdk symlink.
Is py36-pyqt5 one of those ports that has a hard-coded path to the 10.14
SDK, and somehow isn't fooled by the symlink I created or something?
