Building Qt 6 project with Qt 5 kit
-
I built a widgets application using Qt 6 and when I tried using linuxdeployqt I was not successful in the deployment since Qt 6 is not fully supported yet. So I am trying to build my project with a Qt 5 kit (downloaded Qt5 successfully and the kit exists in Qt creator) in order to later release it with Qt 5 and use linuxdeployqt.
Is there a way o change the building kit of an existing project with Qt creator?
Please help, any suggestions will be appreciated. -
Hi and welcome to devnet,
There's no need to "change" it. You can add the new kit to your project and, optionally after that, remove the Qt 6 kit.

Thanks for the reply, I am not able to change the current kit of the project or I did not find from where to do so in Qt creator.

You'll need to install Qt 5.15 first, of course

Thanks a lot
