We can define a lower bound for acceptable qt5 version like we do for python 3 vs 2. I would not want a crappy qt 5.1 on a system with a perfectly valid qt4.8. Note that the end of life warning is not relevant on old systems (in Linux world). So, what is the minimal good qt5 version ? JMarc

Suppose that a system has both Qt 4 and Qt 5 development libraries installed. Should our automake and CMake build systems choose to use Qt 4 or Qt 5? Uwe made a good point that Qt 4 support is ending. See, for example, the following paragraph (from [1]): Qt 4.8.7 is planned to be the last
