I find myself quite unfamiliar with how backporting happens for LTS releases. Have you been unable to find a ppa that has recent-ish versions of the dependencies we need?
Perhaps a snap package would solve this issue?
I agree with the snap package. I'm using the latest Kubuntu (17.10), and it's latest PyQT5 is 5.7. This gives me a 'TypeError: toFillPolygon(self, QTransform): not enough arguments' when I try to run it. If I update to a newer PyQT5, what will that break on my system that currently uses the toFillPolygon with less arguments than the one in PyQT5 5.10?

There's already work being done on a Flatpak: #5. IMO Flapak is much better technology, and providing additionally a Snap package is just wasted effort when there's already a Flatpak.
@bjwest I get that too, I think that warrants an issue of its own https://github.com/BasioMeusPuga/Lector/issues/51
Seems like a very nice ebook reader. Still, most people out there use Ubuntu 16.04 or some distribution based on it.
So all those people are locked out using this ebook reader :(
Why is it so hard to get this working..?
Got this to run on Ubuntu Budgie 18.04 (GNOME) through manual build. Here's the commands if it helps others:
sudo apt update
sudo apt -y upgrade
python3 -V
sudo apt install -y python3-pip python3-dev python3-pyqt5 git
pip3 install pyqt5 lxml beautifulsoup4 xmltodict pymupdf setuptools
cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/BasioMeusPuga/Lector.git
cd Lector && python3 setup.py build
sudo python3 setup.py install
lector/__main__.py
these instructions worked. thank you.

Would love to use this app, all efforts to install after installing dependencies have failed for me.
