Description
The download page on http://qt-project.org/downloads says:
"The source code is available as a zip (270 MB) file for Windows users or as tar.gz (219 MB) file for Linux/Mac users. You can also get split source packages and all the installers here. Or visit the repository at qt.gitorious.org/qt."
Apparently the tar.gz should not be used, only the split source packages can be used. I wasted lots of time trying to build with the obsolete README and ./configure included in that package.

[23:17] <thiago> the download page is wrong
[23:17] <thiago> it needs to list the rest of the modules
[23:17] <djszapi> chakie: I just had a patch today for the README. It was very outdated.
[23:17] <thiago> however, I don't have access to modify it
[23:17] <chakie> how the hell should i know that?
[23:17] <djszapi> do not rely on that too much. :/
[23:17] <thiago> chakie: you shouldn't
[23:17] <thiago> chakie: report it as a bug
[23:17] <chakie> ok
[23:17] <thiago> I've been complaining about that but no one listens to me
