Description
PyQt 5.13.2 breaks window textures and content in Gridsync, causing windows to appear blank or transparent. The following error messages were observed (which may point to two separate issues):
2019-11-22 17:20:58.416 Gridsync[24524:2438424] *** WARNING: Textured window <QNSPanel: 0x7faf33598830; contentView=NSObject(0x0)> is getting an implicitly transparent titlebar. This will break when linking against newer SDKs. Use NSWindow's -titlebarAppearsTransparent=YES instead.
2019-11-22 17:20:58.471 Gridsync[24524:2438424] It does not make sense to draw an image when [NSGraphicsContext currentContext] is nil. This is a programming error. Break on void _NSWarnForDrawingImageWithNoCurrentContext(void) to debug. This will be logged only once. This may break in the future.
I could not reproduce the issue on macOS Sierra (10.12) or High Sierra (10.13) but, on Mojave, downgrading/pinning PyQt5 to version 5.13.1 seemingly corrects the issue, resulting in window textures rendering correctly. As a result, Gridsync builds should temporarily(?) downgrade/pin the PyQt5 package until the code paths that cause the above two errors can be identified and fixed.
