<![CDATA[Why does Maintenance Tool want to do a 0 bytes update to a package called "Qt Creator 2.0", which I did not know I ever installed?]]>AFAIK Qt Creator 2.0 has been dead for decades. Why does it show up in a maintenance tool update run?
I tend to untick that component but I really do not know whether it might be needed for sth?

That was more of an exaggeration and a bit polemic. Sorry.

However, I usually like to understand what a package manager wants to install and why. And as I do not know what "some version used by Qt SDK for the Qt Creator component." means, I asked that question. If that is an internal dependency which I (as far as I remember) did not actively install, it should not be shown to the end user to avoid confused reactions.
