From bug #451456 comment #70:

It appears to be caused by mysql, and looks like QT_LFLAGS_MYSQL is populated by mysql_config --libs which outputs here -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -rdynamic -L/usr/lib64/mysql -lmysqlclient -L/usr//lib64 -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm -L/usr/lib64/ -lssl -lcrypto

So it looks like filterLibraryOptions in configure isn't working as expected.

So, I haven't updated my qt5 libraries yet, where do you guys think the -L/usr/lib64 entry comes from?

In this case it appears to come from mysql_config --libs, so the workaround is to uninstall qtsql then install it, or update it with mysql USE flag disabled.
Comment 3 Losier Blackheath 2014-05-26 08:33:34 UTC 
Well, the problem comes from the external libraries, and this is terrible since -L/usr/lib64 entries appear in many pkgconfig files. Maybe we need another patch in qmake to stop introducing this entry to makefile variables in order to solve the issue thoroughly.
Comment 4 Michael Palimaka (kensington) gentoo-dev 2014-05-26 08:36:04 UTC 
There is code in place already to strip entries like that, but I believe that it assumes it will be given paths in the form of '/usr/lib64', so it doesn't handle the /usr//lib64 and /usr/lib64/.

I have some difficulty understanding the grammar in qmake scripts. But I do believe qmake has a mechanism normalizing the path. And the previous bug, in fact, was solved by fixing the original routine replacing -L/var/tmp/portage... with -L/usr/lib64 in prl files, not by fixing the routine processing libs the building package is going to link to.
(You can do a small experiment by adding -L/usr/lib64 into prl files manually, and see whether -L/usr/lib64 would appear in ld arguments)

Yeah, see the upstream bug too for more info.
