    Well... that's Qt Creator. You have to set them in the terminal you are using to build the module.

            Does Qt 5.15.0 works with ndk side-by-side? I have ndk version 21.2.6472646 installed via Android Studio. Qt Creator keeps wanting me to install 21.2.63xxxxx version.

            Where can I find which Qt version requires which NDK version?

                There is no version r21. There's a version 21c which seems to have issue with Qt 5.15.0

                  This is a bit problematic. There is no mention of r21 on NDK Revision History or NDK Downloads or Unsupported NDK Downloads. Qt should try to support the latest NDK which would be r21d.

                      I have my setup working with an older version of NDK which probably corresponds to r21. It didn't work for me with newer version of NDK.

                          Yes, the latest version of NDK doesn't work with the latest stable version of Qt.

                              Those obsolete packages have been removed from Android SDK Manager and I can't seem to find them.

                                So the "Hide obsolete Packages" is also removed ?
                                I did this like 3 weeks ago and it still had it there.

                                  @mrjj Likely Google removed them. If you delete that package from the SDK Manager and also delete its folder from the disk it might also be not available for you.

                                  The issue would go away if I install an older version of the NDK which makes me think it would be related to NDK version not being supported than SDK Tools.
