I don't use latest software on all machines, upgrading only when sure
that it's stable enough after testing. Current 5.18 Neon btw has some
bugs that keeps me from upgrading (already reported).

I didn't try to install all Qt apps but here are two more:

Musescore: https://pastebin.com/xhAdG7j4
In the past qtcreator was affected too:

Is it really such an extra complication? I thought it's just specifying
"/opt/neon" path as prefix at build time.
