I don't think we can use a static Qt because we use QtWebKit.
But we can ship a bundled version of Qt that should work on most distros. Just
take the official one from qt-project.org (which is built to work on most
distros) and then build Marble with that.
Alternatively, do like Skype and don't ship Qt, relying instead of the distro
one. But we can't use Qt 5 for that yet, as there are still relevant distros
that don't have it.
