Description
Removing a component using Qt Maintenance Tool Takes too much time on macOS.
To reproduce this problem:
- Start Qt Maintenance tool
- Choose "Add or remove components" choice
- Deselect the installed Qt version (for example, Qt 5.15.1)
When uninstall the whole Qt version, it takes too much time because it deletes Qt file by file, not by specifying the whole folder.
To solve this problem, please make Qt Maintenance Tool remove the directory of the component instead of deleting all files by specifying each file.
For example, if I remove Qt 5.15.0 folder by using the command
rm -rf 5.15.0
It takes less than 1 minute, but Qt maintenance tool does it for more than 5 hours.
I don't know if this problem also occurs also on Windows and Linux, but on macOS it is very time consuming. Please make Qt Maintenance Tool remove components by specifying their folders, not file by file.
