FYI, this needs pyqt5 for python2 which is available for utopic, but not 
trusty, so this can't be backported to the trusty without a non-trivial 
backport of pyqt5 for python2.  This may or may not be something anyone cares 
about.

I added the python2 pyqt5 packages specifically because calibre was going to 
need them, we had hoped to keep pyqt5 python3 only, but no such luck.
