Ah, that's a shame. I'm on 18.04, so I don't even know if the 16.04
wheel would work. I suppose not.

Yikes.

I actually disagree with this. I was having a discussion with a friend
about how old computers (1980s) actually felt more responsive than
current ones, because the GUIs were not so wasteful of processing
cycles. I think the trend to web UIs is worsening that situation. Web
apps are way less responsive than well-implemented native apps. (And
they are a leaky abstraction.)
My understanding is that certain PyQt wrappers actually get around the
GPL requirement, allowing you to link to it from BSD-licensed code.
(Which is how things like Matplotlib and Spyder are BSD/MIT.)
But, it's true: none of the Python GUI frameworks are perfect.
