    Hello,

    Im using ubuntu 13.04 64 bits and its comes with Qt 4.x , I want to install Qt5 using this PPA (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/+archive/ppa) in his notes said about its possible but I really want a confirmation from more experience people.

    Is this PPA a good way to install QT5? or I can go for this way (http://qt-project.org/wiki/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntu#231cf4c70d866b616c21baddaeed0696) ??

    Thanks in advance!

    Mario

      Hi and welcome to devnet,

      I didn't use the PPA but I can confirm that you can have both together to develop on linux. You only need to be careful when linking to an external library e.g. when building a Qt 5 application, check whether your dependencies uses Qt 4 (qca and vlc comes to my mind).

      Happy coding !
