Probably because Qt didn't provide enough crypto support but somebody needed 
it so they started an open source project to do it (it was in the KDE svn repo 
last time I looked).

BTW you will most likely also need to build the qca-ossl plugin which 
interfaces to the openssl libs as QCA itself doesn't provide a huge amount of 
crypto support either. It mainly relies upon provider plugins. We have used 
the qca-ossl provider with great success to add crypto support to some of our 
data serialisation code.
