+        You may have noticed newer libsoup releases versioned 3.x.y is
+        available. However, currently some downstream packages support
+        libsoup-3.x, while the others do not.  Installing libsoup-3.x into
+        BLFS is known to cause troubles, even if both libsoup-2.x and 3.x
+        are installed.  So, do <emphasis role='bold'>not</emphasis> install
+        libsoup-3.x into BLFS unless you know what you are doing. We plan
+        to keep using libsoup-2.x for BLFS until GNOME-42 release.
