Getting python to work when building Krita from source on Linux?

[Emmet O'Neill]

Hi Eliakin,

I do have /usr/share/sip/PyQt5/QtCore/QtCoremod.sip and I just ran cmake
with those settings and still no luck (nothing in Tools > Scripting, and no
Python menu in the configuration menu). Cmake still doesn't seem to be able
to find the "sipconfig" or "PyQt5" modules, and at the end it mentions that
the optional SIP and PyQt packages haven't been found. I should mention
that I'm building the latest sources too, straight from origin/master, and
that I got all my dependencies from apt - or rather, all of the
dependencies in that list on the KDE site, along with sip-dev and PyQt5-dev
(which weren't listed but I thought those may be what I needed). It's
possible that I'm missing some other dependency that's messing everything
up.

I'll attach a copy of my cmake output.

Many thanks for the help!
