[Qt-interest] More problems compiling

Hi,

I'm still having some trouble compiling Qt.  I'm on Linux and have the
current 4.7 branch from Gitorious.  During the build process, I got
this error "cp: cannot remove `/Qt/widgets/qmldir': Permission
denied".  Obviously this wouldn't work since I'm not running make as
root.  It seems like this should be part of the make install step.
Also, I found it odd that command seems to think there's a /Qt
directory on my system (shouldn't it at least be /usr/lib/Qt?)

Here is some more context of the error (if more is needed I can post
it but this seems like enough to me):
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/colin/qt/src/imports/widgets'
cp -f qmldir /Qt/widgets/qmldir
cp: cannot remove `/Qt/widgets/qmldir': Permission denied

I didn't explicitly set any build options, so it's using whatever is
the default.

Thanks,
Colin
