For my own script, I used
QTDIR=$QT4PREFIX
if [ "$QTDIR" = "/usr" ]; then
PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/qt4
else
PATH=$PATH:$QT4PREFIX/bin
fi
export QTDIR PATH
That will not fit cleanly into the book (I've seen inline if tests
in Makefiles, they are excessively ugly). If I update the book I
will do two alternative paragraphs with alternative commands, like
we already do elsewhere on that page.
But if I don't manage to build qt4 on a system without qt5, I will
not update this minor point.
