Public bug reported:

when trying to load the OpenLayersPlugin in qgis there's an error
message:

 The plugin is broken. Python said:cannot import name QtWebKit


Reason revealed by strace:

qgis uses  /usr/bin/python, which is a link to python 2.7 under ubuntu,
and then does not find a particular python lib:

17171 stat("/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKit", 0x7ffc1443c810) = 
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
17171 openat(AT_FDCWD, 
"/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKit.x86_64-linux-gnu.so", 
O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
17171 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKit.so", 
O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
17171 openat(AT_FDCWD, 
"/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKitmodule.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
17171 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKit.py", 
O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
17171 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtWebKit.pyc", 
O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)


apt-file says there are no such files in bionic. Bionic offers files for
PyQt5, but not PyQt4.

I'm not sure whether this is a problem of that particular plugin or a
general standard for qgis, to still use PyQt4.
