There's nothing we can do in salix about that. The SlackBuild is probably simply bad. You could try contacting its maintainer...
I have found this discussion in which user writes about Ruby interpreter as missing dependency.
Using tee, the SlackBuild output shows that WebKit is never built due to
a missing dependency:
The WebKit build was disabled for the following reasons:
* Missing ruby from PATH
I used to have ruby installed, I don’t know what happened to it. In any
event, reinstalling ruby with slackpkg and then running the qt5
SlackBuild again was successful.
Do not know if this is all what is needed to compile qt5 because compilation is in progress.

Perhaps it is and the SlackBuild is not bad after all. You can try and report. I know that I have built qt5 in the past here (for version 5.3.2) and it worked. But it is not obvious at all that ruby is a dependency.
But, I would just install the package from alienbob's repository.
A full Slackware install is required for all packages on slackbuilds.org (https://slackbuilds.org/faq/#full). Ruby is one of the many packages included with Slackware. I won't be adding Ruby to the REQUIRES line.
The maintainer explains it well. A full Slackware install comes with many packages that aren't in a standard Salix one, though they are in the repositories. In such cases, the build will probably fail with a message in the closing lines of output indicating what is missing. Install, and try again.
In practice there are a handful of such packages that come up time and again, so if you build many packages from SBo, you will soon find you have them already, and this sort of thing won't happen much any more.
linuxdoc-tools is another such, which may be harder to spot, because the missing item is one of a bundle.
According to Arch Package Database ruby is a make dependencies for their qt5-base package. Just install ruby and try building qt5 again. Or you could just install alienbob package from here http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/qt5/
