I have a feeling 16.04 went with libgstreamer-1.0-0 being installed by default, and Qt5.4.x - Qt5.5.1's Webkit needs libgstreamer-0.10 for multimedia stuff. It wasn't really noticed on older systems that often had libgstreamer-0.10 already.

Well, I can confirm that installing the packages libgstreamer0.10-dev and libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev allowed me to compile and install successfully, thank you. I think you can now add these packages to the installation instructions. I installed Qt5.5.1 probably for no better reason than that it was the latest compatible version available.
I still wish there was a a PPA for Linux. Windows users have the luxury of just downloading and installing. I am not a programmer, so it was pretty tough for me to go through all those steps, and I imagine many others are in the same situation as me.
