How unprofessional. Taking a choice from user.
The defect still stands. You can't use first method if using both Qt versions.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Yes, it is documented.
"The installation of Qt presents several challenges and choices. Complicating the Qt installation is the fact that there are two versions, Qt4 and Qt5, that have executable programs with identical names. If both packages are installed on one system, the only methods to manage which set of programs is used is to either control the users' PATH or to rename files either directly or via symbolic links. Both packages cannot be installed in the same directory."
You can always use method 2 to install in /usr/something/qt4 if you want it in /usr.
