that because of one of these bbappend :
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-fsl-arm/tree/recipes-qt/qt4/qt4-embedded_4.8.5.bbappend
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-fsl-arm/tree/recipes-qt/qt4/qt4-x11-free_4.8.5.bbappend
If you don't need opengl nor openvg in qt you can disable the options
and remove the DEPENDS added in the bbappend.
