Hey,

I am the author of that..
They idea of common.pro was that all compiled modules would use the same compile settings/libraries.
Over time this has changed a bit and if this needs a overhaul, I agree and fine with that.

The only requirement I would like to see for such overhaul is that we keep using QT's make system and not going to use Makefiles with automake or other makefile systems. The goal is to have LibreCAD to get compiled on a 'stock' Qt4/5 and ofcourse the additional libs (two of them at the moment) that can be compiled in the same fashion. So it's easy to compile on Mac, Linux and windows system without creation complex build systems.
