According to the docs, /usr/include is searched after any paths given by
HINTS. However, I can reproduce your problem by doing this:
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr
cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/custom/qt/bin/qmake ../
but that can easily be fixed by a more standard approach of specifying a
desired package (in this case, Qt) in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH instead.
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/path/to/qt:/usr
cmake ../
So, are you setting either CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH in the
environment or in your CMakeLists.txt files?
