Comment (by hsivank@…):

 About the port select.[[BR]]
 I think that it could be a good idea to sandbox Qt4 and Qt5 inside their
 own unique directory instead of ${prefix}. Official installer puts Qt
 inside /usr/local/Qt/QtX/...[[BR]]
 I know that it is not the philosophy of MacPorts but it could really
 simplify things : no conflicts between Qt4 and Qt5[[BR]]
 If a port belongs to QtX portgroup then we just have to add some env
 variables for the build to succeed (in the same way as
 [http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group/qt4-1.0.tcl
 qt4-1.0.tcl] does but qt_dir will be something like ${prefix}/Qt/QtX/)
 [[BR]]
 "port select" should be used to symlink one Qt inside ${prefix} for
 personal dev purpose.[[BR]]
 This is close to [http://nixos.org/nix/ nix]
