Thanks Mark 

Adding QMAKE_STRIP = echo worked. All the files get 
installed with no errors. The only problem I see is that the target
executable then does not get stripped. I tried adding 

target.extra = strip $(TARGET)

which does strip just the target but then it does not seem to be 
installed.

At least I have a workable solution now thanks.
