You can use “qdbusviewer -qt5” command which will work.

Alternatively, install the qt5-default package, then “qdbusviewer” will
also work.

In qtchooser, I added a fallback mechanism for some tools, but unfortunately
qdbusviewer is not among them.

See <http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtchooser.git/commit/?id=ae5eeef85c9a818b>.

Do not do this.
