Cannot install Qt Creator at all and I am fairly experienced

Hi there.  I have been trying to install Qt Creator for a month now and have had no success.  I have tried Windows, Manjaro/KDE, and Ubuntu/Gnome.  If I install via OS package manager (Manjaro Ubuntu), I get no kits or examples and therefore cannot build anything.  If I install via the unified installer (Windows Manjaro Ubuntu) everything works until I use Designer and then it hangs a few seconds and then disappears with a segfault.  People on the forums here and here tell me that it works for them but all I can do is tell you what I see as an experienced unix admin.

I just want to go out and create great things with your product while abiding by the licensing models.  At the least you will be helping someone very desperate to get coding.  Also you have me using Ubuntu which isn't my favourite!

A humble thank you.  Please tell me if you need any more info.

Steps to reproduce:

• install manjaro
• update manjaro
• install integrated desktop environment through unified installer
• Start Qt Creator
• install Qt Quick Designer plugin
• Create project
• Qt Application / Qt Quick Application
• Build (if I don't build the designer screen is totally unresponsive and not drawn correctly)
• Double click on qml file (switches to designer)
• Drag a rectangle into designer
• In the properties pane, double click on colour and change it.
• Hang will be in a few seconds.
