[Qt-creator] Problems building QtCreator 2.1 Beta2

[Bill King]

Interesting, it looks like webkit has been disabled. Did you build this 
manually?

I double checked with the released qt 4.7.0 and 4.7.1 binary releases, 
and both contain webkit built in to them, also at the bottom of the 
help.pro project file is:
contains(QT_CONFIG, webkit) {
     QT += webkit
}

which will include the necessary pieces to link if webkit has been built 
for your target qt.

Could you include a copy of your .qmake.cache and configure.cache files 
from the qt build directory please? Maybe we can see something there.

Regards,
Bill.
