python -m pip install aqtinstall --user -U
python -m aqt install-qt -O ./build linux desktop 6.7.3 linux_gcc_64               # linux x64 only
python -m aqt install-qt -O ./build linux_arm64 desktop 6.7.3 linux_gcc_arm64      # linux arm64 only
python -m aqt install-qt -O ./build windows desktop 6.7.3 win64_msvc2019_64        # windows x64 only
python -m aqt install-qt -O ./build mac desktop 6.7.3 clang_64                     # mac only

Then you can install the package

python -m pip install . --user -U
