Bug description:
  Because of packaging changes in Qt Base in Qt 5.3.2, packages using
  qplatformsupport from private headers will need to add an additional
  dependency to compile against it.

  From Debian bug report:
  ---
  This comes from QPlatformSupport stuff which creates a static library that needs this linking.

  It also happens that QPlatformSupport is private stuff, so there is really no way to solve this but either stop using private stuff or helping upstream to make QPlatformSupport public (which would be really helpful). This will in turn mean that it will become a dynamic lib and this bug can be fixed.
  ---

  So:
  A) someone works in qtbase upstream to make the QPlatformSupport public, or
  B) workaround with adding libmtdev-dev build dependencies

  This bug refers more to the B) option to get Qt 5.3.2 packages move
  forward.
