Description
- Start Creator with parameter "-tcs".
This shall give you temporary clean settings. (Is this what the acronym is for?) - Click "Link with Qt".
- Select a Qt version and click "Link with Qt".
- Click "Later".
- Quit Creator.
- Start Creator with parameter "-tcs".
This should give you temporary clean settings, but it doesn't anymore. Creator is linked with Qt from step 3 because that is stored in the build/installation directory instead of in the usual settings.
Saving the linked Qt version to "share" instead of the respective settings directory seems wrong to me. It means that:
- User will still get the same linked Qt versions when using different settings.
- User will not get the linked Qt versions when using the same settings on a different build of Creator.
