That's good to know. For some odd reason (as Martin pointed out) the
chrpath hack in OE doesn't always seem to kick in. In my case it
always fails so I'll try to target the "proper" fix.

Excellent! Thanks for digging this up :-)

It *appears*, however, that this patch has already been applied to the
sources obtained from meta-qt5's 5.0.2 build (although I can't seem to
verify that conclusively via the ChangeLog). If I look through the
sources the comments at the bottom of, and lack of qt4 specifics in,
Tools/qmake/mkspecs/features/rpath.prf would appear to match.

I'll create a patch based on what Marek had done and see what people
think of it. In this case, though, I'm not sure how to assign credit
(is there a "based-on-the-previous-work-of SOB-type line?).

Best regards,
