[Solved] Qt4 cmake module - problems with freecad

Hello,
I'm trying to do a local build of freecad-0.17 on my PC and I'm completely lost with cmake Qt configuration.
I have qt:4 installed and I am trying to configure freecad with ccmake to use Qt4. The problem is that ccmake complains about Qt4 libraries not found (function find_package(Qt4) in CMakeLists.txt). However when I prepare ebuild for stable freecad-0.17 in local portage overlay (that also use Qt4) it builds OK.

What "magic" ebuilds use to point cmake to right Qt version? Directory /usr/lib/cmake/Qt5 exist, cmake/Qt4 does not, but this does not stop ebuild from working correctly. Ebuild uses "cmake-utils_src_configure" function, is this the key? And how can I do it myself?

Thank You,
Michael Widlok
