Hi

it's documented in the very first comment:

"The package needs Qt sources in order to have access to some private headers 
and sources that are not available in qt-devel and qt-devel-private"

AFAIK this was necessary to get access to QPainter internals for painter 
introspection, and to build against the harfbuzz shipped with Qt sources.

Cheers,
Dan
