150 In order to optionally run the test suite, an additional download of about

159 This package can be optionally built with support for either the Qt4 or
160 Qt5 libraries, but it only builds with one of those at a time. If you
161 have both Qt versions installed, you will need to specify which one to
162 use before executing the <command>configure</command> command given
163 below. Use this command to link to Qt4:
164
165 <screen><userinput>source /usr/bin/setqt4</userinput></screen>
166
167 or use this to use Qt5:
168
169 <screen><userinput>source /usr/bin/setqt5</userinput></screen>
170
171 If you would like <application>Poppler</application> to link to both Qt
172 versions, you will need to build it twice.
