Why so? Either you build Qt with everything, or you build Qt without stuff and 
build it afterwards.

I didn't suggest you grab anything from neither SVN nor `whatever`.
(FWIW, the latest Phonon release is here:

The pri files are not stored together with the Phonon sources in the Qt tree. 
I also know ~nothing about qmake, hence why CMake is the official build system 
of Phonon.
