      When processing a qrc file, qmake does add dependencies to the generated Makefile, such that a change in the resource file will trigger a recompile. However, adding resources later on does not trigger qmake to be re-run, and changes to the new resource files therefore don't trigger a recompile.

      How to reproduce

      • Download attached minimal application
      • Run qmake / make
      • Add file2.txt to qrc file (e.g. by removing the comments)
      • Run make
      • Touch file1.txt
      • Run make
      • qrc_qmaketest.cpp is updated
      • Touch file2.txt
      • Run make
      • qrc_qmaketest.cpp is not updated
