That particular part of the code was refactored in upstream commit https://github.com/dae/anki/commit/1af556cb8d62a638f7fa0bcb6289bf932d338691 and although I was able to backport that single commit onto 2.1.5+dfsg-1 and that particular error went away, I still didn't get a very functional Anki window afterwards (only a menu bar with a grey window, but also three new tabs with data:text/html URLs in my Firefox o_O). So I guess there is still more to it than meets the eye for full pyqt 5.11 support. - Roland
