OK.

I gave it a try by changing the Build-Depends first[1] and see what
happens[2].  I think the problem is caused by this Python file[3] where
I tried to replace

  import sipconfig

by

  import sipbuild

Since I'm lacking the knowledge about the new interface (and was not
able to find the solution after a *quick* search in sip6-doc) I gave up
here and ask for help.  I could forward the issue upstream but I would
like to have a first idea about a patch.

Kind regards
