Hi Pablo!

I'm not familiar with qmake, but according to
https://stackoverflow.com/a/18158261 QMAKE uses DESTDIR, not PREFIX, for
placing installation files. I found that your package built with this
configure step replacement:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(replace 'configure
         (lambda* (#:key outputs #:allow-other-keys) 
                  (invoke "qmake" "." (string-append "DESTDIR="
       (assoc-ref outputs "out")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

i.e. DESTDIR=, not PREFIX=.
