how can I change Qt install path after I building it ?

Example : qmake.exe search binaries to original install path, how can I change/redefine it ?

Thanks.

Edit : I finally found this patch to apply to Qt :

Answer

I was looking into this and found a way that works (in qt 4.7.2) by customizing qt with a qt.conf file.

In my case, I added a qt4-4.7.2/bin/qt.conf (I think it must be in the same place as the qmake executable)

With the following contents:

[Paths]
Prefix = c:/my_path/to/qt4-4.7.2

and the qmake -query started returning the proper paths!
