Eh?

I don't understand - why does this make a difference?  Embedded will
usually be used for cross-compiling, not for the main system.  It has
nothing to do with FHS.  You'd want Embedded to live in its own tree
if you're doing development with it.  I think the embedded packages
are of very little use if they exclude all the other Qt devel 
packages - unless you never do development with desktop Qt and
embedded Qt on the same machine.
