    Description

      When an older version of Qt Creator is installed while a later version is already present, the shortcut org.qt-project.qtcreator.desktop in /usr/local/share/applications/ gets overwritten, and only the older version appears in the launcher menu. 

      Tested on Ubuntu 22 Gnome (default).

      The opposite may happen too, not tested (installing newer version with old version present)
