I haven't change nothing in the program. (Only tried adding "CONFIG += static" to *.pro file but that does nothing)
You need to have a static Qt.
Then open a terminal and go to the folder where you have your installer files and do this:

Quote:make clean
PATH=/path/to/static/Qt/bin:$PATH
export PATH
qmake -config release
make

"/path/to/static/Qt/bin" is your path to your static qt
qmake generates a makefile with the settings.

If you dont have a static qt:

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linux-deployment.html#static-linking

^Don't use just static in configure, because it will take hours. Use something like:
./configure -static -nomake examples -nomake tools -prefix /path/to/static/Qt/bin

Hope you got lucky.
Use at the end to see if your installer sill need libs or not:
ldd ./XBian-installer


EDIT:
Added in the xbian-installer.pro to the unix part this:
QMAKE_LFLAGS = -static -static-libgcc

but i'm getting glibc problems
