Bug#991798: qtcreator: No suitable kits found
Package: qtcreator
Version: 4.14.1-1
Severity: important
Justification: Unable to use package
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Install qtcreator and launch it.
File | New File or Project
Application (Qt Quick) | Qt Quick Application - Scroll
Hit choose
Enter location. Next.
Accept defaults until get to Kit Selection
It says "No suitable kits found" and the Next button is greyed out.
Desktop appears as the only entry in the bottom panel, but it is
greyed out and hovering over brings up a bubble saying at least one
required feature is missing. The Qt Version shows as None in that bubble.
Clicked on the options link (or the manage button for the desktop
kit) shows Desktop listed under kits and nothing under Qt Versions.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
The following steps were on buster with an earlier version.
Attempted to set path to Qt.
Checked the internet and installed the qt5-default. This allowed
me to select a Qt version.
I then was able to create the project. The build failed with a
message "Unknown Modules in Qt: Quick". There were lots of other
error messages too.
Installed additional qml-modules related to quick. No change.
reportbug suggested trying a later version before filing the bug,
so I ran it on bullseye, leading to this report.
In bullseye, in Kits | Qt Versions attempted to use link with Qt
using /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin and several other
variations; the Link with Qt button never activated.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Unable to get even a simple project to build.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
That I would be able to follow the instructions on Qt's site for
"build your first Qt project" and they would work.
Failing that, at least some guidance about what was necessary to
make this thing work on Debian, e.g., a README.Debian file.
