I am having some trouble with the workaround provided by davy39 in Comment #2 and Comment #3. I followed the suggested steps, with a small substitution for the i386 platform, so the command I used to invoke the configure script was this:
python3 configure.py --pyqt=PyQt5 -q /usr/lib/i386-linux- gnu/qt5/bin/qmake -d /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5 The Pyqt5.Qsci configuration script failed with the following output: Configuring QScintilla 2.8.3... QScintilla None is being used. The QScintilla .sip files will be installed in /usr/share/sip/PyQt5. The QScintilla module will be installed in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5. PyQt 5.3.2 is being used. Qt 5.3.0 is being used. sip 4.16.3 is being used. The sip executable is /usr/bin/sip. The QScintilla module is being built with 'protected' redefined as 'public'. The QScintilla API file will be installed in /usr/share/qt5/api/python. Generating the C++ source for the Qsci module...
