OK. I did not know such a package was around. Since I assume many of us will be compiling for either or both, this solution (mutually exclusive packages) is not, in my mind, the best. I have requested from one dev so far that the QT_SELECT by done by his configure script. Another alternative could be a /etc/default/qtchooser. This could specify even more default properties, if desirable. Comment out the build alternative not desired #QT_SELECT=4 QT_SELECT=5 I guess a situation of name-your-poison.
