+qt4 (a C++ graphical user interface toolkit, legacy version)
+
+Qt is a complete and well-developed object-oriented framework for
+developing graphical user interface (GUI) applications using C++.
+
+This is an older 'legacy' version of Qt, only intended to support
+older applications that have not yet been ported to Qt5. Don't use
+this for developing new code.
+
+If you're a SBo maintainer working on a script that requires qt4, see
+README_SBo.txt for some helpful hints.
+
+This qt4 does *not* include qt4-webkit, and there is no separate
+qt4-webkit SlackBuild. qt4-webkit is outdated, EOLed, and has security
+issues that will never be fixed. Nobody should still be using it at
+this late date.
