Hi, Nikos Chantziaras rea...@arcor.de: Btw: Is there a typo in the eclass? Shouldn't it be Project .pro file PREFIX=/usr does not exist instead of Project .pro file PREFIX=/usr does not exists I just checked qt3.eclass and indeed its a typo in there. Which is now gone.

In the ebuild however, eqmake3 doesn't seem to accept any arguments.
This:

eqmake is taking arguments but you have to set the .pro file first like:
eqmake3 projectfile.pro PREFIX=/usr || die eqmake3 failed
Thanks. That works nicely.
By the way, you may want to set PREFIX=${D}/usr
Nope, that's not recommended here. If I do that, the application is
searching at runtime for its datafiles in /var/tmp/portage/[...] instead
of /usr/share which is obviously wrong.
