    <para>
      <parameter>-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release</parameter>: This switch is used
      to apply higher level of the compiler optimizations.
    </para>

    <para>
      <parameter>-DPHONON_BUILD_QT6=OFF</parameter>: By default both the 
      Qt5 and Qt6 versions of this package are built.  We currently just 
      want the Qt5 version, since BLFS does not carry Qt6 yet.
    </para>
<!--
    <para>
      <parameter>-DPHONON_INSTALL_QT_EXTENSIONS_INTO_SYSTEM_QT=FALSE</parameter>:
      This switch ensures that the plugins and mkspecs files get installed in
      the correct location.
    </para>

    <para>
     <parameter>-DPHONON_BUILD_PHONON4QT5=ON</parameter>: This switch is used to
     ensure that Qt5 version of the library is built even if Qt4 is present.
