One of the easiest ways to upgrade all of Qt and remove the not yet
rebuilt packages is:

sudo apt-get remove --purge libqt5core5
sudo apt-get upgrade
# when possible later on, but currently missing Qt Creator and
ubuntu-ui-toolkit, make sure you've all of Ubuntu SDK still
# sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk

...which installs the new libqt5core5a and updates all the Qt packages
and other packages that can be updated at the moment.

Alternatively you can use the mentioned older Qt 5.2 RC1 PPA to do a
simpler dist-upgrade without forced removals, in case you need to keep
more packages installed but want to debug something.
