Thank you for this explanation, which I could conveniently follow.
Until:
Now the problem is how many dependencies you need to upgrade and the
conflicts that will occur.
Well, the first thing was that I would have to pin the python3
package as well - and then I was flooded with a bunch of unmatched <=
*and* >= dependecies.
Which basically is what I was afraid of.
Mmmmh, I see.
So I think I will have to go for one out of:
Waiting until PyQt and Qt are updated in my Distro
Switching the whole distro to testing (is that risky? (I mean
changing, not running testing, which I did earlier))
Completely switching to something else (with the hassle of setting up
again everything)
working with a dual boot (or VM) only for Frescobaldi work.
Actually I don't like any of these ...
I've used Debian testing for several years (switched to Fedora last
year) and I can tell that it's stable.
I can't remember any big problem or instability issues. If you happen
to be hit by a bug in some package, it will be fixed quickly, because
it's a rolling release, often updated (this may be seen as a drawback,
because upgrades and downloads of packages are more frequent than in
stable releases).
Debian stable has a very slow release cycle. I've never been able to
use it because of this.
My suggestion is switching to Debian testing.
Why did you choose Linux Mint? Because of desktop environments
alternative to Gnome which were not available in Debian? Both Mate and
LxQt are available in testing/stretch:

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/mate-desktop-environment
