You are getting this error because qt is being used by your Anaconda Navigator, I have had the same problem, it can be solved by various means reaching the same end.
You can run your Anaconda Navigator, switch to your environment -if you are using default do not switch- then run console through the Environments menu, close Anaconda Navigator, install your package.
You can run your Anaconda Console directly, switch to your environment and install your package.
These two ways should work, first one is a confirmed solution.

It doesn't really read like an answer. You may want to consider explicitly describing the steps involved and reduce the 'conversational' tone.
