Bug #1127
[Linux] Linking error when old libs exist in /usr/lib
Description
When building the engine, ld uses the binaries found in /usr/bin instead of build dir.
I have found that this is because qmake prepends "-L/usr/lib" to LIBS (in each Makefile), which causes it to search for libdeng1.so, libdeng2.so, etc, in /usr/lib first and then in the build dir where the newest libs are.
I believe it's possible to prepend the correct paths to QMAKE_LIBDIR instead of LIBS, but it just seems like an ugly hack.
