Package: python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine
Version: 5.13.2-1

Hi,

TL;DR: Like https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=890200, but for python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine instead of just python3-pyqt5.

Providing an egg-info or a dist-info correctly filled in a Python package is useful because if avoids installing with pip something already installed with the Debian packages.

These are packages I installed with the Debian packages (python3-requests and python3-pyqt5), and they are fine:

% pip install requests
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (2.22.0)
% pip install PyQt5
Requirement already satisfied: PyQt5 in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (5.13.2)

I installed python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine with the Debian package too, but it doesn't work as expected:

% pip install PyQtWebEngine
Collecting PyQtWebEngine

[...snip...]

If python3-pyqt5.qtwebengine shipped the correct metadata, then pip would have told me PyQtWebEngine is already installed.

Thanks
