Building Applications for Symbian^1 with Qt SDK 1.1

Description

Due to "a bug at Qt SDK 1.1":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTSDK-702 qmake generates pkg files which does not include support for Symbian^1 (Symbian S60 5th Edition). As a result a compatibility warning is displayed during installation of the sis file of the application on Symbian^1 devices and application cannot be published for them in Nokia Ovi Store.

Workaround

The bug is still not resolved but there is a workaround. To fix it go to 1Qt473\mkspecs\features\symbian\default_post.prf and replace the following code:

# Supports Symbian^3 and Symbian^4 by default and also S60 3.1, 3.2, and 5.0 if built against any of those.
platform_product_id = S60ProductID
platform_product_id = $$addLanguageDependentPkgItem(platform_product_id)
pkg_platform_dependencies =  "; Default HW/platform dependencies"  "[0x20022E6D],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"  "[0x20032DE7],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"
contains(S60_VERSION, 3.1)|contains(S60_VERSION, 3.2)|contains(S60_VERSION, 5.0) {
 pkg_platform_dependencies +=  "[0x102032BE],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"  "[0x102752AE],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"  "[0x1028315F],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"
}

with

# Supports Symbian^1, Symbian^3 and Symbian^4
platform_product_id = S60ProductID
platform_product_id = $$addLanguageDependentPkgItem(platform_product_id)
pkg_platform_dependencies =  "; Default HW/platform dependencies"  "; Symbian^1 (aka S60 5th Edition) "  "[0x1028315F],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"  "; Symbian^3"  "[0x20022E6D],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"  "; Symbian^4"  "[0x20032DE7],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}"

The modified code will allow you to build applications compatible to Symbian^1 (Symbian S60 5th Edition), Symbian^3 and Symbian^4.
