I did gitorious it, and did a merge request, but did not file a bug because when I had time to your website was unavailable for use. I specifically stated I wasn't opening a bug because I couldn't get to it. You rejected my merge because it was based off of QTDIR -- which you state is the out-of-date way to build things, even though it's the ONLY instructions around and available for Mac.
I also have another fix in my clone for the Windows side of things where someone is having MINGW libraries explicitly loaded if the OS is Windows -- instead of relying on the deployment XML file built at the time of compilation. This breaks things when it's an MSVC compiled version. I have created another merge request (#15) with these two bug fixes included. Even though QTDIR is the old style -- it's still the current style for Mac building in my book. I really, really, really think that we need to have documented precisely how to setup and build the QtJambi distribution files. I was shocked today when you said you use MINGW, but the released QtJambi files are from VC2008. It's problematic when we don't have a consistent build environment that everybody (newcomer and old contributor) alike can use. The project's ability to gain new contributors is inversely proportional to the difficulty of setting up a build environment. I only JUST now got my Windows build to work. Setting MAKEOPTS=Release almost worked -- but then down inside of one of the directories, qmake recursed into subdirectories and my "Release" didn't get passed on. I could not figure out how to get the build system to behave at that level, so I copied the QtDesigner4.lib to QtDesignerd4.lib -- and it finally built without error. It's definitely not optimal, but it built.
