    Hello, on the process of deploying my application on Linux (a Qt C++ Widget application), I installed a fresh Fedora Linux 41 on a pc, a Linux that ships with Qt 6. I installed the Qt Creator that it has on its "software store" which is 15.0 and comes with Qt 6.8.2. But when I tried to compile my project, it didn't find LinguistTools.

    Here's the error message :

    /home/gilboonet/Documents/dev/C++/test1/CMakeLists.txt:13: erreur : Found package configuration file:
    
      /usr/lib64/cmake/Qt6/Qt6Config.cmake
    
    but it set Qt6_FOUND to FALSE so package "Qt6" is considered to be NOT
    FOUND.  Reason given by package:
    
    Failed to find required Qt component "LinguistTools".
    
    Expected Config file at
    "/usr/lib64/cmake/Qt6LinguistTools/Qt6LinguistToolsConfig.cmake" does NOT
    exist
    

    I added the package Qt6-linguist using command line, but I don't know how to resolve the last part, I mean create the ...cmake/Qt6LinguistToolsConfig.cmake file.

    To be sure that it was not an error due to my project CMakeLists.txt, I created a new C++ Widget project and it has the same error. Then I created another one without language file, and this one compiled well. What I can do for the moment is removing language files from my project, but any hint is welcome.

      Hi,

      Did you also install the qt6-qttools-devel package ?

        Unsurprisingly I was able to build my application without LinguistTools

              This one is already installed :

              gilboonet@fedora:~/Documents/dev/C++/Deplieur$ sudo dnf install qt6-qttools-devel
              Mise à jour et chargement des dépôts :

              Le paquet "qt6-qttools-devel-6.8.2-1.fc41.x86_64" est déjà installé.
              
              Aucune tâche à effectuer.

                That's surprising since it's the package that is supposed to provide that file.

                  It's a fresh Fedora 41 install and Qt Creator was the first application that I installed.
                  and Qt Linguist works well

                        Well today I tried to build my project with language support and it simply work, maybe is it due to system updates.
