Not able to install PyQt4 on a macOS Catalina

I am not able to install PyQt4 on a macOS Catalina. I have tried the following:

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt4

but I get a apt-get command not found. I installed homebrew and got fatal error. Some other command I tried:

pip install pyqt
brew install sip --with-python3
brew install pyqt --with-python3
brew install qt
brew install sip
brew install pyqt

But nothing works.

If you REALLY need version 4, it is still possible to install it, although it isn't actively maintained, so a move to version 5 may be in order. PyQt4 supports Python v2 and v3 and is install-able if you use the specific version of both SIPv4 and PyQt4 from Riverbank:

apt-get is a package manager for certain Linux distros.

PyQT4 is no longer supported, try installing PyQT5 with this command: pip install PyQt5.
