Well, it would also probably mess up your 5.2.0 installation. One 
installation/maintenance tool is supposed to manage every package under its 
directory, and will also e.g. nuke the complete directory when uninstalled. 

I'm afraid the installer isn't really up to what you want :(

That wouldn't change the core of the problem. Every installer/maintenance tool 
is a sort of package manager, and it's just not a good idea to let multiple 
package managers manage the same packages ...

Just out of interest, is there a specific reason you don't want to use one 
online installer managing all Qt versions?
