[Interest] Building Qt for debugging - libwebcore.a File format not recognized

[Alexander Semke]

Hi,

>From qt-webkit docu:

"Note: Building the QtWebKit module with debugging symbols is problematic on 
many platforms due to the size of the WebKit engine. We recommend building the 
module only in release mode for embedded platforms. Currently QtWebKit will 
always be compiled without debugging symbols when using gcc. Take a look at 
the last lines of src/3rdparty/webkit/WebCore/WebCore.pro if you need to 
change this."

This may explain the problem you've experienced.
