When following doc/readme-qt.rst I was unable to compile due to a header file missing - boost/random/uniform_int_distribution.hpp. I tried running apt-get install libboost-all-dev, but that didn't fix it. Changing to 1.48 fixed it though, using the line below

apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost1.48-dev libboost-system1.48-dev \
    libboost-filesystem1.48-dev libboost-program-options1.48-dev libboost-thread1.48-dev \
    libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev
