Can windows-x86-mingw492-5.5.1 version of Qt not generate Visual Studio project files?

[Gazette]

Hello
I've started to use the qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw492-5.5.1.exe for Qt development and so far so good but when I tried to generate a Visual Studio 2005 project file:

$ set QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc2005
Administrator@matrix  /c/Documents and Settings/Administrator/c++/qt-layout
$ qmake.exe -tp vc
WARNING: Unable to generate output for: C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/c++/qt-layout/Makefile.Release [TEMPLATE vcapp]
WARNING: Unable to generate output for: C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/c++/qt-layout/Makefile.Debug [TEMPLATE vcapp]

Should I download a different version of Qt or make some edits to generate Visual Studio project files? Thanks.

This package is aimed at MinGW 4.9.2.

For VS2005 you need Qt compiled with VS2005. There are no precompiled packages for this old version though, so you'll have to compile it yourself (if it even can compile Qt 5.5.1).
