Hi<br>
<br>
There is also indication that both Qt-5.9.4 and 5.11.2 are being used<br>
at the same time.<br>
<br>
There used to be issues when updating Qt using ports rather than pkgng,<br>
the workaround back then (last year) was to uninstall the old Qt and<br>
installing the new one so the build process wouldn't mix the versions<br>
when building the "new" Qt.<br>
<br>
I'm still removing my old Qt installations before building the new ones<br>
these days, which is a pain since removing Qt also removes KDE and<br>
other Qt consumers.<br>
<br>
Am I wasting time rebuilding half the system rebuilding half my system<br>
on updates that don't even break ABI, or do we still suffer from qmake<br>
messing up the include paths?<br>
<br>
