I've now prepared a "LyX Qt5 (release)" specifically for packages of LyX built against Qt5 >=5.5.1 : https://launchpad.net/~lyx-devel/+archive/ubuntu/release-qt5 For now only Xenial packages are available. Older Qt5 releases have significant problems with LyX, so older Ubuntu distros are not supported. Those who need HiDPI support please check the packages (they will replace your current Qt4 builds) and report on the list if you encounter issues.
