OK, good find.  It looks like both the debug and optimized libs are 
being used in the depend.  
They are not being used on the link line which is good...    Just 
curious, it should not have been
able to find a library that does not exist on your machine, so you must 
have set the path to the missing
qt lib by hand.   So, on the bright side, if you just leave that out, 
your problem should be fixed.
