[vtkusers] Qt + VTK on Mac OS X 10.6: error linking projects

Hi!

I'm UNSUCCESSFULLY trying to build the Qt + VTK examples included in VTK's
5.6.1 distribution (.../VTK/Examples/GUI/Qt/). Here's what I'm using:
- VTK distribution: 5.6.1
- Qt IDE: Qt creator 2.7.1 (based on Qt 4.7.0)
- Mac OS X version: 10.6.6

Also in the .pro project file on Qt I've included my vtk headers and lib
directories:

INCLUDEPATH += /Users/catamigue/Documents/Migue/Developer/bin/vtk561/include/vtk-5.6

LIBS += -L/Users/catamigue/Documents/Migue/Developer/bin/vtk561Dyn/lib/vtk-5.6


Regardless of the example I'm trying to build (Events, GraphicView,
ImageViewer or SimpleView), after trying to build the project on Qt creator
I always get the same error (in "Build issues" tab on Qt Creator):
:: error: symbol(s) not found
:: error: collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

also from the "compile output" tab I get this after building:

ld: warning: directory
'/tmp/qt-stuff-6474/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/lib' following
-L not found

ld: warning: directory

The process "/usr/bin/make" exited with code %2.

Error while building project 01SimpleView (target: Desktop)

When executing build step 'Make'

from what I've read in other forums this might be an error during linking...
and I don't know what to do!... Please, some guidance will be really
appreciated...

Also some additional information of how vtk5.6.1 was built on my Mac:
- CMake version: 2.8.1.
- CMake parameters (using CMake interface, not command line):
BUILD_EXAMPLES = OFF
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS = OFF
BUILD_TESTING = OFF
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE = Release
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURE = x86_64
VTK_USE_GUI_SUPPORT = ON
VTK_USE_QT = ON

I've also tried by recompiling VTK with universal binaries (by changing
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURE) and by building the projects in Qt Creator both in
Debug and Release modes... And nothing!

I've also successfully built all of the Qt examples (not including VTK)...

Any comments?

Thanks,
Miguel
