I'm not getting that example to work with touch either; are you?

The gestures framework isn't being used or maintained much, AFAIK.  It's currently better to use Qt Quick for such things.  There are a couple of example photo gallery apps: qtdeclarative/examples/quick/demos/photoviewer (which has interaction kindof like this one, but gets photos from flickr) and qtdeclarative/examples/quick/demos/photosurface, which I wrote, and which does handle the mouse.  I have a patch to make photoviewer mouse-friendly too, but wasn't satisfied with the behavior yet.  https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,44323
