    Description

      The CMake kits generated on Linux have an environment entry like the following

          "environmentVariables": {
            "VSCODE_QT_FOLDER": "/home/egon/Qt/6.7.1/gcc_64",
            "PATH": "/home/egon/Qt/6.7.1/gcc_64:/home/egon/Qt/6.7.1/gcc_64/bin:${env:PATH}"
          },
      

      First, the entry /home/egon/Qt/6.7.1/gcc_64 is superfluous on all platforms. There are no binaries nor shared libs in that directory. It shouldn't be necessary to add.

      Second, /home/egon/Qt/6.7.1/gcc_64/bin is useful on Windows only to have Qt's DLLs in the search path. We should not need a PATH entry on non-Windows platforms.
