You have come across a bug in the latest version of PyQt5. The solution is to downgrade PyQt5.
I’m going to assume your Python3 version is <= 3.5.3
From a terminal do these commands:
pip3 uninstall PyQt5 -y
pip3 install PyQt5==5.10 --user
Indeed

jafix@Smoerph:~/Downloads$Don’t run the install.py script again. Simply do this after running the install.py script, as I posted above:
pip3 uninstall PyQt5 -y
pip3 install PyQt5==5.10 --user
Aaaahh… That’s it! Yes it works.
Sorry, my bad. 
3.5.2 here.
The solution suggested above should work for you too.
It, did! Thank you very much. I couldn’t post as I was new to the forum!
Excellent work Damon (for RPD)
Same issue here (Ubuntu 16.04, python3 3.5.2), the solution worked (downgrade PyQt5 to 5.10).
How lame of PyQt though… It’s generally a bad thing to keep out-of-date packages on a system.
Especially because it makes impossible in the end to track what is what…
Thanks for fix, had already spent too much time fooling with dependencies as hints found on internet related to same problem in other software !
After being stuck with a buggy version 0.4.1 in Elementary OS, I can now happily test this great version 
I have released a new version, 0.9.10, which contains the fix for the bug encountered here, and several other fixes too.
Thanks for the new release. It’s cool.
Although, it’s not actually ‘fixing’ the issue with PyQt5, but it just forces a downgrade of PyQt5 to the exact version needed while installing RapidPhotoDownloader.
If you upgrade again PyQt5 to the latest stable version, RapidPhotoDownloader does not work any more.
I’ll feel this as concluded when everything will work without version cherry-picking 
I may be too religious, but an installer that downgrades lib packages does not make me feel fully at ease.
I’m still a great fan of this software, though.
I don’t think we’d have working systems if we didn’t version pick
We should get RPD in to an AppImage, flatpak, or snap, I think that’d help ease the pain!
I beg to differ… let’s not mix up version release with what I called version ‘cherry-picking’… Once a version is released and integrated, a ‘manual’ way back is usually an extreme measure (and not safe, in general).
As for your last point… I couldn’t agree more. An AppImage would be perfect, for exemple. Everything self-contained, whatever version of the libs that is needed wouldn’t affect the system software management.
Released and integrated into what, exactly? RPD runs on many many distros from Debian stable to Arch. “Released and integrated” means very different things in Debian stable and in Arch. You either use the older distro packed version, as in Debian, or you get components that go too far ahead and break. You’re hitting on one of the fundamental problems* about distro packing.
This may easily become a very long discussion, potentially off-topic, I guess 
My point is just that this is the only software currently sitting in my computer that needs to ‘break’ some part of the software management of the system (in this case pip).
I have many other pieces of software (such as digikam) that need specific release or flavour of libs, not just one recent enough version, but they do not need all the system to be affected by their need (e.g. by running as an AppImage package).
I’m still talking about the ideal situation in which the requirements are defined as >=ver and not as ==ver.
And yes, I admit I’m quite pedantic…
