Run Qt Maintenance Tool - updated to 6.2... what is next ?
-
My "options" kits do not include 6.2 ...
Setting Ubuntu Desktop Qt Creator to "New Window" does nothing...
Executing "qtcreator" from terminal starts 5.15.2....How do I switch to 6.2.0?
-
If you add Qt 6.2 through the maintenance tool, it will register itself with Qt Creator from the maintenance tool. It will not register with Ubuntu's QtC (as I understand you are using QtC provided by Ubuntu?), you have to add the Kit manually in settings: just go to Options->Kits->Qt Versions->Add... and browse to
qmakelocation of your new Qt 6.2. -

My original "download" was using Ubuntu. I just went , by accident, thru overnight "update" using Maintenance tool. Then I did same ,again using Maintenance tool, but selected 6.2
I really do not get the Qt numbering scheme - after Qt Creator is run there is no 6.2 Apparently it matters in "kits" selection which is "set" on "auto-detect anyway.
I am sure there is a comprehensive document describing all those versions numbers. I have not found one.At this time I have ONE of mine OS set to "update" again. It works as expected.
My main OS still has few issues , partly due to "new and very slow" OS.

I just trashed all folders, but kept the home/qt/Qt/5.15.2 .
Now I have new home/qt/Qt/6.2.0 .I am missing something basic...

OK, so you should be able to add it manually. In "Qt versions" tab click "Add..." and browse to
/home/qt/Qt/6.2.0/gcc_64/bin/qmake. Once that is ready, you can add a new Kit with Qt 6.2.On, now I see there is a new option here: "Link with Qt..." which links Qt Creator with installation from Maintenance Tool. Should fix your problem... if it works :D

@sierdzio Yes, I found the"link" now I need to know WHERE did the update went
and on top of that I get these - without askingqt@qt-desktop:~$ qtcreator Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway. Cannot update Qt version information: /home/qt/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64/bin/qmake cannot be run. Cannot update Qt version information: /home/qt/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64/bin/qmake cannot be run. Cannot update Qt version information: /home/qt/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64/bin/qmake cannot be run. -
Wayland stuff you can ignore, as discussed in a different thread.
For the other one - I don't launch Qt Creator from terminal so I don't know if this is normal. But you can at least check permissions with:
ls -al /home/qt/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64/bin | grep qmakeI don't expect it to be forbidden from execution, but who knows.
