Where is the ./configure executable file for Qt 4.7 in Linux if installed via Synaptic?

I've installed Qt 4.7 on Windows XP before and had to configure it via the configure.exe and a list of settings.

Now I have installed Linux and downloaded Qt 4.7 SDK (and the Qt kitchen sink) via Synaptic.

I have my list of configure flags ready, but I cannot find the ./configure executable to run.

Any ideas where this thing is? Thanks.

By the way, I did see this, but could not find info on the configure executable there: Qt.Wiki:Build Qt for Linux

If you've installed it from Synaptic, it'll most likely be a binary package - which means it'll have already been configured and built. If you require options that differ from the ones used for that package, you'll probably have to download the source and compile it separately.
