These names are OK for the Qt Embedded libraries, and they should
match what your cross development tools are using.  Which tool chain
did you use for compiling and linking your application - the one from
meta-toolchain-qte ?

When I build meta-toolchain-qte, this also includes, for example,

.../sysroots/armv6-vfp-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib/libQtGuiE.so.4.8.2

so cross tool chain and native systems work together without problems.


Best regards,
