Thanks for this pointer, we will take a look how to fix this issue.

A quick workaround  is to edit the file 
<install-root>/etc/installer.ini, change the line containing 
DeveloperMode to "DeveloperMode=true", then save the file.

Start the installer again, choose qt category and click on the checkbox, 
which change the mode to update and click next. Then the qt package will 
be updated.
