Qt Creator 17 introduced the Qt MaintenanceTool find_package dependency provider, which allows CMake projects using missing Qt components to be installed before configuring the project.

This now only works if you have the latest Qt version, in this case 6.9.2.

If you open an example from Qt 6.9.1 that has missing components, the  find_package dependency provider won't find the missing components, because Qt 6.9.1 has been moved in to Archive and the installation process fails.

For the user the failure is not obvious and it makes this feature in Qt Creator useless.

It would be great if Qt Creator could specify the right magic to find all components for the given Qt version.
