Yes, exactly.
If you have on your system, for example, qt 5.0, and you deploy your
application bundled with another version of qt. Then, the bundled
version of qt will try to read the "default" config files for system's qt.
Which could be catastrophic for plugins, themes, fonts or whatever
config the user is using.

That's a problem i'm facing when deploying application for users using
KDE for example. My bundled qt will try to load user installed "qt"
plugins for his KDE, which kills everything.


All the best,
