I think you have the qtchooser syntax wrong.

'man qtchooser' says that the value passed to QT_SELECT is the same as
that which would be passed to 'qtchooser -qt='. Testing that, I get:


$ qtchooser -qt=4 -print-env
QT_SELECT="4"
QTTOOLDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin"
QTLIBDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"
wanderer@apologia:~$ qtchooser -qt=5 -print-env
QT_SELECT="5"
QTTOOLDIR="/usr/lib/qt5/bin"
QTLIBDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"
$ QT_SELECT=4 qtchooser -print-env
QT_SELECT="4"
QTTOOLDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin"
QTLIBDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"


IOW: the value you need to pass in is '5', not 'qt5'.
