Looking at Qt 5 for packaging in Ubuntu. Qt 4 and 5 contain quite a lot of files with the same names, at the Ubuntu Developer Summit in April we discussed the issue of bin/moc qmake etc but I see all the libraries have the same name too so probably development environments just can't be co-installed from distro packages.
One other thing I noticed is the $QT_PLUGIN_PATH which is used at runtime which is used by both Qt 4 and 5. It's set by the startkde script to point to KDE's plugin directories so running a Qt 5 application under KDE 4 gives lots of "Old plugin format found in lib" warnings. I think this environment variable should be renamed to $QT5_PLUGIN_PATH Jonathan _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
