[Development] Qt5 qtwebkit packaging

[Zoltán Balogh]

Hi Csaba,

I was in contact with Lauro earlier  and I know his repository. He has 
binary only repository for the qtwebkit.

After the alpha release I managed to package all the important modules 
of the Qt5.

But now the qtwebkit gives me hard time. Right now I managed to  fix 
(hack) the code to compile, but it fails on linking: 
http://pastebin.com/5yXJTvfY

Any kind of help is appreciated. My objective is to provide source and 
binary distribution of the Qt5 for both ARM and x86 targets.

cheers,

Zoltan
