QtWebKit --> QtPrintSupport

but rather it is

QtWebKitWidgets --> QtPrintSupport

QtWebKitWidgets is new in Qt5.

Calling on my bash-fu I do: for SO in *.so; do   echo $SO; otool -L $SO |
grep PrintSupport; done
(modestly accepting applause here)

and find that in fact, only QtWebKitWidgets refers to QtPrintSupport.

However I also find that QtWebKitWidgets depends on QtSql and QtSensors --
the latter is not mentioned in the hooks file, it is perhaps new in Qt5?

So maybe it is QtWebKitWidgets that needs the special hook for QtSql,
QtPrintSupport, QtSensors

Looking at the various Qt-related hooks it is not clear to me which one(s)
should be modified to do this, or how a new one for QtWebKitWidgets would
be constructed.

Hope this helps,
