--- Comment #2 from Jack <ostroffjh at users.sourceforge.net> ---
Ralf, I'd be tempted to close this as UNSUPPORTED or UPSTREAM, as it is not
just KMyMoney, but there are some of the KDE libraries which cannot have the
KDE4 and KF5 versions installed at the same time.  It is possible to have more
than one version of KMM (both KDE4 or both KF5) installed at the same time -
but not the distro versions, they have to be installed to different prefixes
(for example, one to /usr or /usr/local, and the other to /home/user/install)
and there is some handwaving to set some environment variables so KDE and QT
find the correct versions of the libraries and plugins.  (I believe that type
of dual install does work for one 4 and one 5 version, but only if there are no
conflicts between the required KDE libraries.  From distant memory, I think
this only became possible when KMM5 made the requirement for one of the KDE-PIM
libraries optional, but it may have been something else.
