I'll try to check this week. In the meantime, please try to apply this : If people want stable LXQt, don't use the daily PPA, upgrade to Xenial and use official repository. Most people should use this, and there is a LXQt metapackage. If people want dev version of LXQt (git snapshot), usr the dai

I've modified the wiki page[1] to state: "At this time, we are waiting for the LXQt metapackage to be included in the Ubuntu repositories. For now, use the ppa:tsimonq2/lxqt-meta PPA for an up-to-date metapackage. The purpose of this PPA is to simplify installing the packages required for LXQt.

Good point here. PPAs are, in general, to be considered unstable and unsupported (read: risky). This is true with both of the PPAs we're discussing. Often times daily build PPAs track upstream changes which may create problems. Because of this, they should not be recommended. The reason using the
