Ok, thanks. The wrapper tool does not exist yet, and Qt 5.0 might be released without it. That'll be something for you to deal with then. :) Independent of the binary renaming, you do need to update the cmake file when you move the mkspecs. I thought there was a configure switch -datadir or so which could be used to set where they go. Do you use that or do you use some other means of moving the mkspecs?
