[Gambas-user] On Ubuntu 20 no qt4 libraries?

[Bruce Steers]

gb.gui.qt will auto switch (or select with env) between qt4 and qt5.
gb.gui will switch between gtk2 gtk3 qt4 and qt5

If you do not require your program to be qt (as i would have assumed you
would as you used the qt4 component explicitly) then use gb.gui

Here's an explanation.
