Qt4 needed for building using autotools? && Wonders.

I'm trying to build some trinity components manually, since no
binaries, nor build scrips (PKGBUILD) are available for my distro
(arch), and I wonder, why when I try to compile something using
autotools (because obviously it hasn't been ported to cmake yet) it
keeps me asking for Qt >=4.3 and <5.0.
Besides I looked a little at files present in the admin dir and I
found that some of the paths for libraries are hardcoded and point to
(example) /usr/share/kde3 or /usr/share/qt.

Another thing, shouldn't automake files be removed form components
that have been ported to CMake. Since autotools-based compiling aren't
really supported for those...

And I'd be grateful of someone could write a little about how to port
trinity components to cmake. I'd like to help, I get the main idea,
but I don't know where too look for dependencies and stuff like that.
