[Qt-interest] Compiling 4.6 from git repository

Hi all,

I just compiled and installed the master branch from gitorious in Ubuntu 9.04.
What I did was:

./configure -opensource ....
make
sudo make install
(edited /etc/environment and added
PATH="/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.6.0/bin:..." , then logged out &&
logged in again )

All went fine, but noticed none of the .qm files were installed, so
there's no translations in my 4.6 installation.

To solve this, decided to try:

make ts && make qm

and then reinstalling again by running

sudo make install

The problem is that the 'make ts' step is taking way longer than I
expected, I see lupdate running since at least 5 hours on this
not-so-underpowered system.
How long does it take, typically, on a regular system?

TIA,

diego
