make fails with 'qmake not found' message

Hi
Can't build qt app due to error: "could not exec '/usr/lib/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory"
I've checked this directory - file exists,

[crow@nest bin]$ file qmake
qmake: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=42bd35b01fb040951a5c2c66ed28fd09b1c6a463, stripped

system is x86-64, why make can't use it? Where this problem arises from?
Thanks

You are sure qmake is in /usr/lib/qt/bin ? On my system it is located at /usr/lib/qt4/bin

Yeah, it is just a typo, /usr/lib/qt4/bin.

A bit ugly... but...

# mkdir -p /usr/lib/qt/bin
# ln -s /usr/bin/qmake-qt4 /usr/lib/qt/bin/qmake

What does

# ldd /usr/lib/qt4/bin/qmake

says?

Uhm, fix the build script instead of using ugly workarounds.

How about

qmake -qt=4

as a workaround?
