export QT_INCLUDE=/usr/include
./cpptoxml/cpptoxml

should work. You have to check that /usr/include/QtCore exists and is
a directory. Else you should find it and change /usr/include to the
proper directory.

If the "make" command finished then you already have your bindings
built. Check in lqt.build/lib/ . if you see things like "libqtcore.so"
then you are done. Just move it to a place where lua can find it.
Check the Lua manual for how "require" works

http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#pdf-require

For a quick test you can rename libqtcore.so -> qtcore.so and
libqtgui.so -> qtgui.so . Then from the lib/ directory try to run the
examples shipped with the source.

why? :) we should make the instructions clearer...
