Thanks to Gert's and Gianfranco's help I made quite some progress.  Currenly
I'm left with a riddle about the role of qt5-default which is a metapackage
and lintian throws an error when Build-Depending from a metapackage.  So I
thought that would be simple and made sure that ugene would Build-Depend
from all of qt5-default's Dependencies which are

   qtbase5-dev, qtchooser

Since qtbase5-dev is in the Build-Depends anyway I simply did

   s/qt5-default/qtchooser/

in the current status of Git ... and ended up in:


...
dh_auto_configure -- UGENE_WITHOUT_NON_FREE=1
        qmake -makefile -nocache "QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE=-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" "QMAKE_CFLAGS_DEBUG=-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" "QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE=-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" "QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_DEBUG=-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" QMAKE_LFLAGS_RELEASE=-Wl,-z,relro QMAKE_LFLAGS_DEBUG=-Wl,-z,relro QMAKE_STRIP=: PREFIX=/usr UGENE_WITHOUT_NON_FREE=1

So what else might qt5-default do besides installing dependencies
to make qmake happy?  Should I simply override the lintian error?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
