I still prefer what we have now as I think it is more clear, but I can be
persuaded depending on what others think.
The placement in /opt makes a lot more sense in an LFS environment. An
update becomes easy. What I use is:
{{{
VERSION=5.12.2
QT5PREFIX=/opt/qt5
sudo rm -rf /opt/qt-$VERSION $QT5PREFIX
sudo mkdir -p $QT5PREFIX
... qt5 build instructions
sudo mv $QT5PREFIX /opt/qt-$VERSION
sudo ln -svfn qt-$VERSION /opt/qt5
}}}
That retains older versions and reverting is as simple as changing the
/opt/qt5 symlink.
