Multiple Qt Versions on OS X?

[rickbsgu]

Anyone have a way to do this?

I'm installing from binary, commercial edition. I only seem to be able to install one version at a time - the new version blows away the currently installed version.

OS X has a pretty good versioning system for libs and frameworks, but Qt doesn't use it, or only uses the bare minimum required.

Any thoughts appreciated.

So, there doesn't seem to be a way to do this with the binary distributions, but you can do it with the source install.

Doing the 'make install' will install that version in /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt<version #> by default.

Not optimal, but it works. The only problem is I don't seem to be able to get a document set for Assistant....

If you move everything of your current version in another directory then install new version. After installation check the variable and create new variables for old version

my suggestion is: if you want to have multiple versions it is easier to install it from source like rickbsgu said.
