Thiago just said the same thing (but he dropped kde-packager... ) :

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.qt.devel/8622/focus=8628

My mail was a reaction to finding these packages:

 https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-proper

and finding that they were installing broken cmake files as a result of 
renaming the binaries and moving the mkspecs.

So please, whether you use the wrapper tool or not, please run the cmake unit 
tests to ensure that you are not creating a broken situation for anyone using 
your packages.

Thaigo, if that tool is a requirement for packagers, why is it not a release 
blocker for Qt 5.0? What do you expect packagers to do?

Thanks,
