I didn't find the source of conflicting 5.2.1 library, but I've applied
a workaround to get pyqtdeploy to install.

(1) Run command qmake --version to get Qt libs path.

    QMake version 3.0
    Using Qt version 5.5.1 in /opt/qt55/lib


(2) Check value of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/:/usr/lib/


(3) Prepend path to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH in ~/.profile

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/qt55/lib/":${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}


(4) Reboot

(5) Check that $LD_LIBRARY_PATH is updated (prepended)

    echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    /opt/qt55/bin/:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/:/usr/lib/


(6) Go to pyqtdeploy download/clone folder.

(7) Run commands

    make VERSION
    make pyqtdeploy/version.py
    sudo python3 setup.py install


to completion ..

(8) Finally test that pyqtdeploy GUI launches by running command in
terminal ...

    pyqtdeploy
