We decided do a very simple binary debian packages to avoid
complications with debian control and rules files. Then only the
basics deps are necessary to install, you can install it in any debian
like distro with qt 4.7.

I have thought of create a PPA for the package before, but like I told
these are very basic packages without all dependencies. To implement a
PPA we need improve (complicate) the packaging process, and make
specif package for each distro, witch is already done by the package
managers who has a lot of work to do in every release cycle.

Another point is, with this raw packages, we can avoid people to do
wrongs updates, only who really know what are doing will use our
package. The main point of this is because we can't ensure if the
package are 100% working, the build system is automatic then some
problems can happen and then make the package invalid.

In my opinion the best way is keep the things manually to avoid
automatic mistakes ;).
