Correct and improve code logic, buildconf, and packaging. In particular:
1. Use descriptive variable names <var>libs instead of just <var>.
2. Although Nokia states in all Qt builds that 'NOTE: When linking
against OpenSSL, you can override the default library names
through OPENSSL_LIBS.' and even gives an example, their own
configuration logic rejects such an attempt. Correct this by
hard coding the OpenSSL library string in the configure script.
3. Consistently use the whitespace substitution [\t ] throughout.
4. Patch the buggy INCPATH of SQL plugin Qmake project files.
5. Add the 'x11' configuration variable to the qtconfig Qmake
project using the src/gui/gui.pro file as a model. This is
needed for qtconfig although not in other tools, because
the qtconfig buildconf indirectly includes qt_x11_p.h which
is dependent on X11 headers.
6. Avoid 'ld.so: fatal: hardware capability unsupported: SSE2 AMD_3DNow'
on platforms for which the config.tests/unix/[3dnow|sse2] succeed
although unsopported at run time by testing for the x86-64
instruction set at build time and regulating hardware capabilities.
7. Correctly install the desinger plugin by explicitly building it.
8. Remove custom plugin installation logic which is unnecessary.
9. Correct removal of temporary paths from shared object files.

michael@13 29 B<openpkg release> - OpenPKG Release Utility
michael@13 30
michael@13 31 =head1 SYNOPSIS
michael@13 32
michael@13 33 B<openpkg release> [B<-F>|B<--fmt> I<format>]
michael@13 34
michael@13 35 =head1 DESCRIPTION
michael@13 36
michael@13 37 The B<openpkg release> command displays the OpenPKG release tag and
michael@13 38 distribution URL. The release tag uniquely identifies an OpenPKG
michael@13 39 distribution and the distribution URL is the location where the
michael@13 40 distribution packages and indices are stored.
michael@13 41

michael@13 43
michael@13 44 =over 4
michael@13 45
michael@13 46 =item B<-F>, B<--fmt> I<format>
michael@13 47
michael@13 48 The output format specification. The argument I<format> is an arbitrary
michael@13 49 string which can contain the special expansion constructs "C<%t>" for
michael@13 50 expanding the release tag, "C<%u>" for expanding the distribution URL
michael@13 51 and "C<\n>" for expanding an embedded newline character.
michael@13 52 The instance UUID information is also availble by expanding
michael@13 53 C<%r> to UUID_REGISTRY, C<%i> to UUID_INSTANCE, C<%p> to UUID_PLATFORM.
michael@13 54 The default I<format> is "C<OpenPKG-%t %u>".
michael@13 55
michael@13 56 =item B<-r>, B<--release> I<release>
michael@13 57
michael@13 58 The package "C<Release>" header value to use for deriving the release
michael@13 59 tag. The values in the F<@l_prefix@/etc/openpkg/release> file and the
michael@13 60 "C<Release>" header of the bootstrap package B<openpkg> are ignored if
michael@13 61 this option is used.

michael@13 70
michael@13 71 This optional configuration file can be used to explicitly set values
michael@13 72 for the OpenPKG release tag and distribution URLs. It consists of lines
michael@13 73 with variable name/value pairs. The following configuration variables
michael@13 74 are recognized:
michael@13 75
michael@13 76 =over 4
michael@13 77
michael@13 78 =item B<TAG=>I<tag>
michael@13 79
michael@13 80 The default I<tag> is automatically derived from the "C<Version>" header
michael@13 81 of the OpenPKG bootstrap package B<openpkg>. One usually only sets this
michael@13 82 explicitly to a value if a bootstrap package is used from a foreign
michael@13 83 distribution version.
michael@13 84
michael@13 85 =item B<URL=>I<url>
michael@13 86
michael@13 87 The fully-qualified distribution URL based on either the "C<ftp>",
michael@13 88 "C<http>" or "C<file>" URL schemes. If I<url> contains a trailing
michael@13 89 "C</*>", this is expanded according to the I<tag> value of the B<TAG>
michael@13 90 variable and the corresponding filesystem layout on C<ftp.openpkg.org>.
michael@13 91 The default I<url> is "C<ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/*>".
