Pixy 2 on Fedora Issue

I have installed PixyMon for original Pixy on Fedora with no issues. I went to install PixyMonV2 and receive the below error. Can PixyMon co-exist with PixyMonV2 on the same installation of Fedora?

Error:

Hello Don,
Both versions of Pixymon be installed on Linux (or Windows). Building in linux doesn’t actually copy the executable anywhere, so it’s up to you to determine which directory you would like to copy it to and what to name it.

It looks like you didn’t install Qt because it can’t find qmake. s

Does step 2.1.3 proceed without errors?
