The xTuple upstream developers are aware of the transition and qt5 will
be supported with a new upstream release, maybe 4.9.0 or 4.10.0.

I believe the timeline for this is within 3 - 6 months.

Can you please leave libqt4-webkit in the archive until upstream finish
testing and release with qt5 support?
