It's not bad, but a good thing imo.  Qt4/Qt5 is much like Qt3/Qt4 and 
gtk2/gtk3, they are different parallel-installable toolkits.

The good news is that api-wise Qt5 is relatively close to Qt4, so 
projects that want to use it generally dont have to change their code 
much (provided they weren't using any compat or deprecated interfaces).
