We have marked Qt4 obsolete a year ago, it's no longer maintained, and
it doesn't build with OpenSSL 1.1, it's really time to remove it.

We will happily take a follow-up patch that re-enables Qt support in
gnuradio once the gnuradio package in Buildroot uses a sufficiently
recent version of it that has Qt5 support.

Would that work for you ?

Thanks,

Thomas
