Lazarus needs porting to Qt5 (symbol names changed at the minimum, probably more needed).

And it doesn't work. Work upstream and/or in Debian in the Lazarus package is required to get this going.

The good thing with this new version is that it hardly has arch specific symbols left (one, if my memory serves).
