This is not ok; we can't break the apps already in the app store; we
have to preserve binary compatibility.

This probably means we have to introduce a qt 5.0 source package
providing the old package names.

Did the SONAME change adequately for this transition?  This is needed to
allow both libraries to be installed at the same time and the runtimer
linker to find the right one.
