Apologies. Yours was the latest post at the time and I misinterpreted the "I was wondering the same about removing Qt 4.5 files" line in that post.

I have Miniature running in the N900. It pulled the 4.6 libraries. Activesync (using 4.5) works as usual and the 4.6 packages from extras-devel didn't conflict in any way with the pre-installed 4.5 packages.
Exactly. They didn't conflict as they are missing the necessary checks. Dropping identically named .so files into directories so they override already existing ones is IMO a very bad packaging practice (euphemism for hack ).
