[Slackbuilds-users] request for QPrompt package

I just tried building QPrompt, and version 2.x requires KDE6 (or, more 
specifically, KF6-6.9.0). Even -current doesn't have KDE6 (yet, but still).

Version 1.2.0, however, builds and runs fine as is with no extra 
dependencies (or maybe I just have enough extra packages installed). 
It's not difficult to write a SlackBuild for it, especially since it'll 
be stuck at that version until Slackware 15.1 with KDE6 releases. But 
who's gonna maintain it?
