Recovery to Qt 4.3.4 from Qt 4.4.0
Message 1 in thread
I have problems with Qt 4.4 on my Mac (tiger) and I posted my questions. But
so far no real solution yet. I want to switch back to Qt 4.3.4. But when I
used the dmg file to install it, the computer says "there is nothing to
install". How can I deal with this?
Thanks in advance.

Navigate to /Library/Receipts, find the Reciept from the last time you
used the package installer to install 4.3.4 (back before you had
4.4.0), and delete it/them. Looking at my machine, it looks like there
might be several packages named something like Qt_libraries, Qt_docs,
etc. The installer should be happy then. No guarantees as to how well
this will actually work with the 4.4.0 install though. I THINK it
should work.
