Description:
Firebird(Interbase) plugin is missing in qt package.

Decision:
1. install libfbclient
2. create symlink from /usr/lib/libfbclient.so to /usr/lib/libgds.so
3. replace line in qt's PKGBUILD from
-plugin-sql-{psql,mysql,sqlite,odbc}
to
-plugin-sql-{psql,mysql,sqlite,odbc,ibase}
4. build qt package

Please don't say _how to_ do it, instead please say _why_ should we do it.
Thanks

I ask it because there is no other way to install qt's firebird/ibase sql driver.
For example, in freebsd qt4-ibase-plugin package exists.

And there are all sql drivers (SQLite, MySQL, ODBC, PostgreSQL) in arch qt package but Firebird/IBase driver :)

Thank you.
