I am trying to run my first Qt Android application and I followed this tutorial:

http://urfoex.blogspot.ro/2013/12/qt5-android-setting-up-qt-52-for-android.html

However, after I ran it i got this error:

i686-linux-android-g++: error: unrecognized command line option '-marm' make: *** 
[main.o] Error 1 21:33:42: The process "make" exited with code 2.
Error while building/deploying project avd_tests (kit: Android for x86 (GCC 4.8, Qt 5.2.1)) When executing step 'Make'

I also tried using armeabi but i got:

In file included from ../.android-ndk/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.8/include/algorithm:60:0,
                 from ../.Qt5.2.1/5.2.1/android_armv7/include/QtCore/qglobal.h:82,

The application I am building is a default Qt Quick application. I am using Qt 5.2.1 and QtCreator 3.0.1.

Anyone any Idea what it could be or does anyone know a good guide on how to make Qt on Android work on GNU/Linux?

It turns out it was a known bug in the newer version of Android SDK.

As pointed by Bogdan Vatra, the creator of Qt for Android, the solutions were:

Find an older Android SDK.
Upgrade your Qt creator (use Qt SDK 5.3)
Use a real device.

In order to solve the problem I downloaded qt-opensource-linux-x64-android-5.3.0-RC_2014-04-14_00-48-35-55.run from http://download.qt-project.org/snapshots/qt/5.3/5.3.0-RC/2014-04-14_55/ and the deploy worked successfully!

Thanks Bogdan!
