Hi Lisandro and Scott

I do run designer from the shell.
Today I could install python3-pyqt5 (it was uninstallable yesterday) and I 
rebuilt qscintilla2 and designer works without problems.
This is against my intuition, I thought designer needed to be rebuilt not the 
library.

Scott, can you please rebuild qscintilla2?
