In the build part of the project view the path is the project build 
path.  In the run part of the project view the local file path seems to 
have the source part as the project build path concatenated to the bin 
path.  So it looks like 
/home/QtSDK/myprojects/thisproject/~/QtSDK/bin/mybinaryfile

DESTDIR is set at ~/QtSDK/bin.  So it doesn't find it.
