I guess the newer version spoils your installation. My Xenial
installation is build against python-sip 4.17 from the main ubuntu repo,
and works fine.
It might be that python-sip 4.19.2 includes a different version of
sip-api, which is of no use for you.
Try to downgrade python-sip, and libqt5core5a as well, which comes as
5.5.1 from the main repo for me.
If KDE Neon does not provide it, try to force the main ubuntu repo version.
HTH,
Andre Joost

I did downgrade python-sip to version 4.17+dfsg-1build1 from the
main Ubuntu repositories. I still get the same error at qgis install
about sip-api-11.2 having no installation candidate.
Downgrading libqt5core5a would require downgrading my entire
desktop. I'm not willing to do that.
Perhaps I could rebuild both libqt5core5a and python-sip so that
they will both claim to provide the missing virtual packages even in their
current versions.
