    Description

      Following the example in the pyside docs, a strong reference appears to be held somewhere. when you include gc.set_debug as shown above, you can that uncollectable objects remain at cleanup. PyQt6.QtCore.pyqtProperty does not have the same issue.

      from PySide6.QtCore import QObject, Property  # this has uncollectable objects
# from PyQt6.QtCore import QObject, pyqtProperty as Property  # this works

import gc

gc.set_debug(gc.DEBUG_UNCOLLECTABLE)

class MyObject(QObject):
    @Property(int)
    def pp(self):
        pass
