title: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement PyQt4 (from versions: )
body: <p>When trying to install qt4 for python 2.7 (that I need to run some scripts written by other developers):</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ sudo pip install PyQt4
  
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement PyQt4 (from versions: )
  No matching distribution found for PyQt4
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Additional information:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ python --version
  Python 2.7.15+
  
  $ pip list
  Package    Version
  ---------- -------
  numpy      1.16.5 
  pip        19.3   
  pyqtgraph  0.10.0 
  setuptools 41.4.0 
  wheel      0.33.6 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any suggestion on how to install it?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Please note</strong> that I have tried the solution proposed <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22640640/how-to-install-pyqt4-on-windows-using-pip">here</a>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>pip install PyQt4-4.11.4-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl
  
  ERROR: PyQt4-4.11.4-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I guess because it is not a windows platform, isn't it? I am trying to install it on XUbuntu 18.04.</p>
  
  <p>As suggested in one of the comment by @phd <em>"PyQt4-4.11.4-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl is for Python 3.5 and Python 64-bit. You need to download wheel for Python 2.7"</em>.</p>
  
  <p>I have tryed also:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ pip install PyQt4‑4.11.4‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl
  
  Requirement 'PyQt4‑4.11.4‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl' looks like a filename, but the file does not exist
  PyQt4‑4.11.4‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl is not a valid wheel filename.
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So the question can be: how to install the right version? How to find the right packet? My problem is exactly this one: I do not know how to move myself in this big forest. Thank you for every suggestion.</p>
