FYI:

>From my untrained and quick observations it seems that a QT
application can be built at least in two ways:

1) A "quick app"
2) A "normal app"

A "quick app" uses the quicklauncher to launch it and the application
itself is some kind of "plug-in" that lives in a library file (e.g.
libzsafe.so).  That's why the "binary" is a symlink that points to
quicklauncher.

A "normal app" produces its own binary (e.g. zsafe) and it does not
use quicklauncher to run.

So far I have been able to produce a "normal app" for zsafe 2.1.3, I
will be working on the packaging which is where I still get some
problems but if I manually copy the files to their respective
locations everything works fine, well at least I was able to update a
couple of passwords. :-)

Altering the FILES entry didn't help in pushing the binary into the
IPK (it gives me the error I described earlier about nothing providing
'zsafe').  I am trying by directly putting a "install" line in the
"do_install" function in the BB file.
