What's in /usr/lib/qt/lib/

qt-mt is the multi-threaded library usually called something like
libqt-mt.so.3.0.4. There should probably be some symbolic links
pointing to this too.

If there are no libraries then you need to get them or build them
from source.
If there is only the single threaded library libqt.so.3.0.x then
you need to get the mt library.
If the libraries seem to be present, maybe you need the
symlinks - try ldconfig.
If everything seems to be in order, then try to get configure to
produce a verbose output and scrutinize it.

What do you mean? Are these source RPMs?
