Looking at the Frescobaldi install from source page, it clearly indicates that 
the Python stuff should be from the same version (3.4 or higher).  I would hope 
that following the recipe will result in a working install for you.

******************
Frescobaldi 3 needs Python version 3.4+, PyQt5 and Python-Poppler-Qt5. And of 
course python-ly and Python-PortMidi, installed for the same Python version.

Installation order:

        • Install Python 3.4 or higher
        • Install PyQt5, using the same Python version of course.
        • Install python-ly
        • Install Frescobaldi (will work, but without PDF and MIDI support)
        • Install Python-Poppler-Qt5
        • Install Python-PortMidi. If this one is difficult to install, you can 
also use Pygame, which too contains the Python-PortMidi library. Use the 
correct Python version!

Hope this helps!
