I agree, it will complicate packaging and add new dependencies, but
typically such changes are rare.
I think simply listing the needed additional packages in README.qt
would be just fine for the time Qt
interface is not widespread.
When the Qt interface will be packaged apt-get build-dep will provide
the Qt dependencies, too.
