When building with Qt 5.4 this is not a problem, but with Qt 5.5 (tested
locally), it is clear that this dependency is missing:
$ ./result/bin/qtcreator
file:///nix/store/zmpf6ydrjdydd85wh6splpywv6aj4782-qtcreator-3.4.2/share/qtcreator/welcomescreen/welcomescreen.qml:31:1:
module "QtQuick" is not installed
import QtQuick 2.1
^
With Qt 5.4 something else is pulling in the qtdeclarative dependency,
it can be seen in the qtcreator wrapper script.
Note to self: "import QtQuick" != qtquickcontrols. QtQuick is
apparently located in the qtdeclarative module.
qtcreator displays an error when accessing help, unless we have
installed documentation. That seems like a packaging bug to me and is
definitely unfriendly (default) behaviour.
This change increases the closure size from 56 MiB to 68 MiB.
To give the ability to use a different Qt version than the default one
(which can build 3 different times Qt Libraries if we mixed the default
one, the qtcreator one and the version including all the examples and the
docs).
Right now a developer can choose to directly install the QtSDK which
includes a "full" (developerBuild + docs + examples) Qt version and uses
it to build QtCreator.
The possibility to only install QtCreator and its previous behavior has
been kept for flexibility purposes (we do not need to force someone on the
SDK approach).
* Remove package name
* Start with upper case letter
* Remove trailing period
Also reword some descriptions and move some long descriptions to
longDescription.
I'm not touching generated packages.
- Qt is now directly overriden in QtCreator's definition.
- qt48Full can be used in a development environment to enable access to
docs demos and examples.
NOTE: It may be required to remove older configuration files located in
~/.config/QtProject and at ~/.config/Trolltech.conf to reconfigure
qtcreator with the correct paths. I have found /nix/store/... paths in the
following files:
$HOME/.config/QtProject/qtcreator/toolchains.xml
$HOME/.config/QtProject/qtcreator/qtversion.xml
$HOME/.config/QtProject/qtcreator/helpcollection.qhc
At the first launch, be sure to check your qtcreator's configuration by
selecting Tools->Options. The most important parts are the Kits and
QtVersion tabs located in the Build & Run section.
