    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?

      @devjb That's not the version of Qt Creator, that's some version used by Qt SDK for the Qt Creator component.

        @cristian-adam I did not really think that that was the real Qt creator component. 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.
