I was not aware that dh_auto_configure is calling qmake such that there were
duplicate calls; I'd like to fix that.  I'd also like to have Mumble be cross
buildable.

I had a chance to review the patch.  The fix hinges on this function call:

   PKG_CONFIG = $$pkgConfigExecutable()

Could you let me know where this function call exists, i.e. what package it's in
so I can look at it?  I haven't been able to find it, and to try to get a patch
upstream I need to understand and be able to explain what this is for and what
it does.

Thanks
