Since 4.8.0 is out, I\'ve reinstalled Qt, and now I want to use cmake too. To make cmake work, I remember having to add the mingw bin folder (QtSDK\\Desktop\\Qt\\4.7.3
I had the same problem and I solved providing the path to qmake,
QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE /opt/qt-4.8.7/bin/qmake
On Mac, while the binaries are saved in /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.7/bin
the required qmake required as value of QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE is, for my OS, stored in the path /opt/qt-4.8.7/bin/qmake
. Hope this help as well.
