Re: Last commit may break your builds

John,

I've been following this discussion silently.

  * We should not be generating the src.pro file in the source tree,
    but I don't know how to tell qmake to properly set up paths if the
    src.pro file is in the build tree, separate from the source tree.

The src.pro file is not generated. It is the input file for qmake, of which qmake will generate a Makefile. As long as you do not want to take the burden of dealing with all the Qt stuff manually and want to go without comforts like almost automatic porting to Qt5 (which is almost there!), you have to go with qmake.
