Generic answer:  when migrating one Python project independent of others 
on the same system, I'd suggest having an independent Python 
installation for the temporary mix of addon libraries. In your case the 
only difference might be the absense of the qt version 3 stuff.

The way of supporting multiple environments varies by system and by user 
environment, but  generally you can either change the shebang line, or 
the script/batch file you start the application with.  If you're on 
Windows, you do not want to change the file association to point to the 
new environment, so be careful during install, not to make this the 
"default" Python installation.
