The packaging of extra/qt-private-headers is odd: /usr/src/corelib, /usr/src/gui and so on, without a directory named qt-something? I was trying to build the latest Qt Creator from its git repository, and ran into this error

aggregation_global.h:36:28: fatal error: QtCore/qglobal.h

/usr/src/corelib/global/qglobal.h exists, but why to rename the directories this way? It is not useful for compiling programs which depend on Qt internals. I think it would be a good test case for this headers package that you should be able to build Creator with only the system Qt and this headers package installed.

git clone git://gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator.git
cd qt-creator
qmake
make
This task depends upon

The directories aren't renamed. QtCore/qglobal.h is in /usr/include/QtCore/qglobal.h and is part of the qt package. The private and public headers are installed in the correct locations, though I have no idea what's the use of the files that are installed in /usr/src.

I rebuilt the whole qt (without split) and their Makefile installs those headers in /usr/src/{corelib,declarative,gui,script} so the package is fine; we keep the upstream layout.

Yes /usr/include/QtCore/qglobal.h exists after re-installing the package, I must have deleted those headers for some reason. Sorry for wasting your time. I still think /usr/src/core etc. is not very nice but that will be a qt bug then.
