I haven't even started to look into compiling the desktop app with 5.6 (and the dependencies). I'd rather doubt that this will be straight forward. I am considering dumping Marble, btw. Tomaz is experimenting with some code to show maps in a way that works on both desktop and mobile. We'll lose the pretty globe but if it makes things smaller and simpler, I think it's worth it.

And yes, you can totally have multiple versions of Qt at the same time and have Qt Creator configured to switch between them. I have ~/Qt5.4 ~/Qt5.5 and ~/Qt5.6.0 on my Mac. Each of those contain the official Qt Mac binaries. I don't think you can do that with Homebrew (but never looked into it).
