I did not find anything related to QWS in Debian (yet). But I found
the following page:
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Specs/M/ARMQtonEmbedded/Guide

The interesting part is QWS precompiled packages already exist.
The worth part is the introduction. It seems that X11 and QWS flavour
are API compatible, but not ABI compatible. So, precompiled Debian's
package with X11 are not supposed to run with QWS.

So, it seems that the only "simple" solution is to find a way to build
the "qtpainter" navit's plugin with QWS.
