the source code is required to compile the mysql plugin which isn't

Yes... Unfortunately, qt-project has recently changed their archive
URLs, and unfortunately, they haven't made it easy to determine what
the URL for a particular version is.

Their archive site, only contains old copy and the latest version is
located in another area etc...

So at this stage, the simplest is for you to go into the
qt-project.org web site and download the
qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5.tar.gz file and place it into
.osx-packager/src

you're not doing anything wrong, it's broken for the time being
