           Summary: incorrect handling of libs in nested subdirs by qmake
                    manager
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel at kdevelop.org
        ReportedBy: koepfle at ti.uni-mannheim.de


Version:           3.0.0a5 cvs (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 3.3 prerelease 
OS:          Linux

qmake manager scrambles the LIBS and TARGETDEPS lines when linking to a lib, if the lib is in a nested subdirectory.

our project directory structure look like this:

|-libs
|    |-mylib1
|    |-mylib2
|    |-bin    
|
|-app

We put the created libraries in libs/bin (by setting DESTDIR=../bin in mylib1.pro & mylib2.pro)

Then after adding libs/mylib1 & libs/mylib2 in the Libraries dialog for app the corresponding lines in app.pro should read:

LIBS += ../libs/bin/libmylib1.a \
        ../libs/bin/libmylib2.a
TARGETDEPS += ../libs/bin/libmylib1.a \
              ../libs/bin/libmylib2.a

however they look like this:

LIBS += ../bin/libmylib1.a \
        ../bin/libmylib2.a
TARGETDEPS += ../bin/libmylib1.a \
              ../bin/libmylib2.a

I'm attaching a testcase and a patch that fixes this problem.
