Changing OpenSSL include path for qmake

Question

I want to build Dogecoin with qmake. It doesn't work with Fedora's OpenSSL because its OpenSSL doesn't have elliptic curve cryptography included. So I've got my own OpenSSL but I can't figure out how to change the dogecoin-qt.pro file to include an OpenSSL from a different location.

Normally with make I would do this:

$ export OPENSSL_INCLUDE_PATH="/usr/local/ssl/include"
$ export OPENSSL_LIB_PATH="/usr/local/ssl/lib"

qmake seems different, the file I need to change is here: https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/blob/master/dogecoin-qt.pro

How do I change it, or what arguments can I give to qmake so I don't have to?

Edit: I've edited the Makefile it generates but it would still be nice to know an answer because it will make nicer build instructions for other people.

Fedora's OpenSSL doesn't have ECC because of the possibility it infringes against patents. This might lead to be building my own rpm, but at this point I just want to get this application running. I cannot find a package by anyone else that does ECC and I did look first. — John Tate

You will have to change variables defined for OpenSSL library

OPENSSL_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/include
OPENSSL_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/ssl/lib

Unfortunately, you will also have to fix values for Boost, BerkleyDB and miniUPNPc as they link to a location specific for developer's machine. On Unix-like system it's better to use pkg-config to get library dependencies:

unix {
    CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
    PKGCONFIG += boost 
}

Also it looks like at least miniupnpc and Berkley DB don't have any pkg-config configuration.
