Thanks a lot, somehow I misinterpreted the error message, thinking
it was not a Qt version issue.

In this respect:The INSTALL file writes as prerequisites:
  "Qt 4.2 or newer"
which should be updated to 4.5 then.
Also a test during cmake for the right version would be helpful.

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation, everything worked
out smoothly then ...
