Issue like dependencies on 3rd party libraries that keep changing
versions/compatibility in major ways is painful for everyone.  I miss
the day when the OSG had very few external dependencies.

For this particular issue I see a couple possible approaches:

  1) Maintain two separate osgQt libraries, an osgQt4 and an osgQt5
  2) Move the implementation in src/osgQt into the headers in include
osgQt and have no osgQt library
  3) User provides their own Qt integration.

Thoughts?
Robert.
