Hello!
I once had the same issue. I guess I solved it by first building SIP and then downloading and building PyQt4. Otherwise, you can make life more simple by letting Anaconda install pyferret by doing(skip ferret_dataset if already existing and later point it to its location):
"conda create -n FERRET -c conda-forge pyferret ferret_datasets --yes"

More details on this can be found here
