sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 40 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8

Install Qt 5.3.2

Download and install Qt 5.3 from http://qt-project.org/downloads
Add Qt bin directory in your $PATH.

For 32-bit:

echo "PATH=~/Qt5.3.2/5.3.2/gcc/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.bashrc
source  ~/.bashrc

or for 64-bit:
