I have just used the packaging of our distribution and created a meta package 
to pull in the toolchain, qt and some other dependencies. 

As far as i know host-qt does not support host tools but only cross compiling, 
so i went for the easier way and installed the qt devel packages from the 
distribution. To build a meta package in debian/ubuntu you can use equivs and 
just add all your dependencies in there. For creating the repository i used 
reprepo. Thats all debian stuff don't have much experience with building 
packages and repositories for rpm based distros.

Hope this helps
Tim
