I doubt the variable is still required nowadays (which is not to say it doesn't do anything). > @René: I am hoping I will be able to point QTDIR to *either* qt4-mac > or qt5-mac when developing and testing KDE apps in the future, as > MacPorts goes through the transition from KDE 4 to KF 5.

There really is no reason to worry.

The Assistant app can read .qch documentation bundles. From what I've seen, each of the various copies I have of that application has its own set of preferences, and will show what documentation you have of the Qt version it's built against by default. I prefer to have a single copy that indexes all documentation (and a Qt4 version at that, as it follows system-wide style settings); handy to see if and how a class has evolved.
