PyQt5 5.12 Crashing Unpredictably

See original GitHub issue

Windows users are reporting crashes/segfaults on Windows with PyQt5 version 5.12.

Immediate solution of downgrading PyQt5 to version 5.11.3 works for now but we need a patch for this.

Edit: Travis is also reporting failures on Linux

@banesullivan Sorry I didn’t reply earlier, I didn’t have much time to go back to vtki. I will create a new issue today in the evening or tomorrow.
