Install QT Creator 4.7.4 on ubuntu 20.04

Hello everyone.

I'm quite new to Qt framework. I have to move a Qt project from Red Hat Enterprise 6 (very old, it was developed in 2012) to Ubuntu 20.04. It was created with Qt creator 4.7.4.

I tried to upgrade the source to Qt creator 6.4 but I failed. There is a way to install Qt Creator 4.7.4 on ubuntu 20.04?

Thank you in advance.

Before you bother to do this, have you tried the Qt Creator released with Ubuntu 20.04? I think that's 4.x. It's just a sudo apt install qtcreator command to install! The exact version of Qt Creator --- unlike Qt itself --- is often not so vital.

Meanwhile I don't know how you installed Qt itself on your 20.04. Did you build anything? I never have done so, I take the Qt & Creator versions which come with each Ubuntu release and they have been fine. Unless you want the very latest versions, which it does not sound like you do.
