'qtconfig' is available in the 'qt3-qtconfig' package, which is in universe. 
What functionality is in this program, is it for customisation?
</quoting>

Yes, but there is more to it than simple customisation, then without
qt3-qtconfig and the lack of a proper /etc/qt.rc (as pointed by Peter
Linnell from the Scribus team), _every_ qt application cannot look
properly on _Ubuntu_. The end user will be confronted with a random GUI
font and  random font size -- like Lohit Punjub without Latin glyphs on
Peter's en_US desktop.

A Scribus user on Ubuntu is forced to find out on his own, why Scribus
looks like this, then to find out, how to customise this, and then to
manually  install qt3-qtconfig, because there is no dependancy. A little
to much for Ubuntu target audience, I guess:

So, the proposed solution for Ubuntu would be to:

1. Deliver a properly configured /etc/qt.rc that would  match  GUI font
type and font size settings of the Gnome desktop

2. Deliver qt3-qtconfig as an obligatory, not an optional package
