Hi Alexander, I would basically update Qt following the requirements of the scientific software I use, so that would be once a year or so. I cannot promise to update every minor.
Regarding the size, the total is 486M, but as you see: larcher@na75:> du -sh /opt/qt/4.8.6/* 43M /opt/qt/4.8.6/bin 938K /opt/qt/4.8.6/imports 14M /opt/qt/4.8.6/include 109M /opt/qt/4.8.6/lib 319M /opt/qt/4.8.6/share 1.8M /opt/qt/4.8.6/tests The documentation is 308M. I can look at splitting Qt to different packages but any help would be appreciated.
