QT change in openembedded-core causes build failure

[mdhorn]

If you attempt to build any project with which uses recipes from meta-openembedded/meta-oe, there are build errors due to QT changes in openembedded-core:

ERROR: ParseError at /home/user/devel/meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-navigation/monav/monav_0.3.bb:17: Could not inherit file classes/qmake2.bbclass

The problem line is

inherit qmake2 qt4x11

due to the fact recipes-qt are no longer a part of the OE-core.

It appears that a recent commit to the openembedded-core project made changes to QT which are causing this build failure:

    qt4: remove recipes and classes

    Qt4 is no longer supportd upstream, but it is still needed for LSB compliancy.
    Qt4 recipes have been moved to a separate meta-qt4 layer to be consistent with
    meta-qt3 and meta-qt5.

In addition to the monav recipe, several others in the meta-eo have dependencies on QT:

Let me know if more information is need or some direction on how to resolve the problem.
