QtCreator 3.3.x crashes during start-up on raspberry pi2 with Qt5.4.1

[neXus_rk]

I'm using Arch Linux (armv7h) on my raspberry pi2, after some trouble with QtCreator and the botan library (see here: QtCreator 3.3.0 cannot load plugins since botan-1.11) I was finally able to run QtCreator 3.3.1 based on Qt5.4.0 without any problems.

Now, since Qt5.4.1 is available in the Arch ARM repo, QtCreator 3.3.1 crashes on start-up. I've also recompiled QtCreator against 5.4.1, but without success, see here QtCreator fails to start after update to Qt5.4.1for details. It seems to be a problem with OpenGL ES 2.0 / 3.0. Can anyone help?

In the meantime, QtCreator 3.3.2 is available in the Arch ARM Repo, but the problem still exists, QtCreator crashes on start-up with

[nexus@alarmpi ~]$ qtcreator
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
iconTheme "oxygen"
OpenGL ES 3.0 entry points not found
/usr/bin/qtcreator: line 2:   654 Aborted    (core dumped) QT_LOGGING_TO_CONSOLE=1 qtcreator-bin $@

If I downgrade the Qt packages from 5.4.1 to 5.4.0 then QtCreator runs without problems, so something critical has changed from Qt5.4.0 to Qt5.4.1.

Hi,

That won't necessarily help but can you try starting Qt Creator with the welcome plugin disabled ?

[neXus_rk]

Wow, thank you, SGaist. Disabling the Welcome-Plugin avoids the problem, QtCreator starts with Qt5.4.1 on raspberry Pi2 now :-) The problem is not really solved, so I don't want to mark this thread as solved.

Looks like there might be a regression, you should take a look at the bug report system to see if it's something known, if not plus consider creating a new report providing as much information possible about your setup and tests

Done.

How can I disable welcome-plugin

[SGaist]

IIRC

qt-creator-executable-name -noload Welcome

@SGaist thank you
