    Description

      Ughh, I feel sick. I was playing around with the cpp module, trying to get my application to install to link with shared objects....

      And on run, it starts to delete my entire home directory, destroying hundreds of hours of work.

      I know this is a user error sort of thing... but there should be a warning, or perhaps better templating to avoid this.

       

      Here was my qbs file that did it. Im not sure exactly what here did it but, ughh

       

       

      import qbs
      CppApplication {
       id: application;
       name: "wikipedia"
       qbs.installPrefix: "usr"
       qbs.installRoot: "/"
      Depends {name: "cpp"}
       Depends {name: "Qt.core" }
       Depends {name: "Qt.webenginewidgets" }
       Depends {name: "Qt.concurrent" }

       // The following define makes your compiler emit warnings if you use
