Hi. I developed a desktop application using PyQt6 where I used sqlite as local database, sqlalchemy as orm and alembic for database migration. I followed the documentation of PyQt5 packaging for linux since i did not find any resource for PyQt6. But, it doesn't work. Is there any resource or solution to make package the app and make the .deb installer file for linux?

If you do not get an answer here, don't forget PyQt is third-party. They have mailing list if you need to ask there. -

Thanks for your information. I'm not getting any kind of resource too regarding the packaging.

Hey @dev-anis what you are trying to achieve is completely possible in PyQt6 (bindings by Riverbank Computng), but I'm not familiar how. That being said, within PySide6 (official bindings by The Qt Company) we have a tutorial for creating a SQL Alchemy PySide6 application https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython-6/tutorials/finance_manager/index.html#tutorial-financemanager where you can create a package with the deployment tool
