Public bug reported:

debian lacks Qt4 (due to security) and so gambas an debian lacks the qt4 
packages (gambas3-gb-qt4, gambas3-gb-qt4-ext, gambas3-gb-qt4-webkit, 
gambas3-gb-qt4-opengl)
In theory this shouldn't matter as we have Qt5 bindings
In practice this doesn't work as Qt5 support isn't up to the same level (menus 
don't work on unity, some components such as the Editor class are missing)
these issues have been reported upstream, but may not get fixed in a hurry 
(i.e. until upstream developers are forced to shift off Qt4)
In the meantime, there is no reason gambas on ubuntu can't have the Qt4 
packages (because Qt4 is still available on ubuntu)

Can the gambas packages be recompiled to enable this and available
through backports or similar for xenial and zesty?
