step 1 done! I succesfully compiled Qt5 on Oneiric just following the
instructions on the wiki.

Now... who gives me any hints to be able to package the whole thing :) ?

I've packaged some little applications in the past, I'm quite
confidential with /debian folder and its files, but (for example) I
really don't know how to split that huge "monster" in small packages
like: qt-tools, qt-network, qt-opengl ecc.... the Debian/Ubuntu
packaging guide doesn't cover this (at least the one I read, but feel
free to point me to the right chapter if I missed it).

Should I take example from the actual Qt4 packages already available
for Ubuntu or should I start from scratch?

as far as I know, there are no Qt5 PPAs on Launchpad at the moment.

what is mesa-llvmpipe exactly? Is there any --switch/option to pass to
configure to be able to use Qt5 with it?

Thanks!
