In "src/config.pri", where it says:

CONFIG      += warn_on release

change to

CONFIG      += warn_on debug

If your ipelets share a lot of functionality, it might be sensible to 
simple make them one ipelet (an ipelet can implement an arbitrary number 
of functions).  Otherwise, it would be best to create your own library.
