Comment(by youngtaek.oh@…):

 Replying to [comment:2 michaelld@…]:
 > Before anything else, let me ask you a question.  You write that "IMHO,
 installing Qt as framework is very useful" ... so, IYHO, what makes the
 framework version useful that (1) cannot be done with the non-framework
 version; and/or (2) makes the framework version that much more attractive?
 Saying it is "very useful" is good and nice and all, but really doesn't
 provide me with hard information as to -how- it is very useful.  That is
 what I'm looking for.

 OK, I will tell you that why I need the framework version.

 I am writing an application that uses Qt and python embedded. And inside
 of Python shell, it calls PyQt4. However, my application is uses the debug
 version of Qt and PyQt4 is uses the release version of Qt. This causes
 crash.

 The only solution I found is compiling my application with CONFIG +=
 release, but in this case, I cannot debug my application. With the
 framework version, this problem is gone.

 Is there any solution to this problem with the non-framework version? I
 tried to find, but I couldn't.
