It is a byproduct of the workaround in autobuild for debian rolling out 
multiarch.

In a nutshell, on Debian, pkg-config and libraries can now get installed 
in /lib/<ARCH> and /usr/lib/<ARCH>

To avoid issues with that, I started adding these to the 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH. I also added them to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as at the time I 
saw no drawbacks.

How can I reproduce ? I tried loading the UILoader and starting the Qt 
designer, and had no problems
