    Description

      1. Delete Creator's settings.
        (They are in ~/.config/Nokia or %APPDATA%\Nokia respectively.)
      2. Start a debug build of Creator.
      3. Open "Tools" -> "Options..." -> "Build & Run"
        Creator will write a warning to the command line: 
        Warning: Failed to read "/home/rob/dev/creator-2.6/share/qtcreator/Nokia/qtcreator/profiles.xml", can not restore kits!

        Okay, there is no such file so that might make sense.

      4. Close Creator.
        Creator will write profiles.xml to the settings directory.
      5. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
        Creator will write the same warning again. This indicates a problem because now there's a fresh profiles.xml. Either writing or reading it does not work correctly.
