>     made in those - however, if your application packaging is done
>     correctly, rebuilding your projects should reinstall the packages
>     you have been using.
>     - All customization done to SDK (adding new package repositories,
>     adding custom targets, additional source paths) will be removed
>     during the installation process so make your own backup of those
>     before starting the update.
>     - If you import existing projects made with a previous version of
>     the Sailfish OS SDK, make sure you select the correct kit in the
>     project configuration step. Both ARM and i486 kits are available.
>     - Windows users need to install VC10 runtime from
>     http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8328
>     or the Installer will ask for admin rights during installation.
>     - Package repository contents have been updated and consequently
>     using a previous SDK version with these package repositories is
>     not supported.
>     - For more information, please see the SDK Alpha-Qt5 known issues
>     list at: https://sailfishos.org/wiki/SDK_Alpha_Qt5_Known_Issues.
>     - Oldest Mac OS X supported is now 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion). Other
>     supported platforms can be found from:
>     https://sailfishos.org/alpha_qt5_sdk_release_notes.html
>
