+fcitx5-qt is the Qt im-module for fcitx5 and it needs to be installed
+in order to use fcitx5 with Qt-based applications. It currently
+supports Qt4, Qt5 and Qt6.
+
+You'll need several Qt modules if you're going to enable Qt5/Qt6
+support, namely QtCore, QtDbus, QtWidgets and QtX11Extras. Qt5 is
+bundled in Slackware, however if you want Qt6 support you're on your
+own; but any app that requires Qt6 on SBo at this point should have
+already pulled all the dependencies in.
+
+Relevant CMake options are ENABLE_QT4, ENABLE_QT5 and ENABLE_QT6.
+ENABLE_QT4 is turned off by default, ENABLE_QT5 and ENABLE_QT6 are
+turned on by default. However to avoid pulling in excess dependencies,
+Qt6 support is turned off in the SlackBuild. If you need Qt4 or Qt6
+support, you might want to turn the flags on/off depending on the Qt
+version you are using. To enable Qt4, you need to modify
+
+ -DENABLE_QT4=Off \
+
+from "Off" to "On". Similarly, to turn on Qt6 support, turn
+
+ -DENABLE_QT6=Off \
+ -DENABLE_QT6_WAYLAND_WORKAROUND=Off ..
+
+from "Off" to "On".
