3) there's a question of cross-compilation relating to qmake and host tools,
which I have not followed and do not understand the current state of. Need
input here.
The situation is as follows for the cross-building case:
You need to have a host Qt installed, including qmake.
The cross-built Qt's qmake is a wrapper script that calls the host Qt's
qmake and passes a qt.conf file, adjusting qmake's properties.
This wrapper script in the cross-built Qt is currently named "qmake" and
currently lives in $prefix/bin.
Then there's the question of which tools we recommend be in $PATH with a
suffix (list (b)). Please expand on this list if necessary, with a reason.
Here's the minimum list:
qmake6 entry point for building qmake-based applications,
situation
similar to /usr/bin/python (see [1])
qt-cmake6
entry point for building CMake-based Qt-applications
possibly
qt-configure-module6
entry point for building Qt modules that are not part of the
installation
But one might argue that whoever wants to build a Qt module can call
this script from libexec.
