You probably need to tell Qt Creator about your new Qt installation (Tools->Options->Qt4->Versions). It is a known issue in 1.3, that the installer writes the initial Qt Creator settings *for the root user* if you install as root. So, if you'd start Qt Creator as root user, it would already know about the new Qt version in /opt, but if you start as any other user, it doesn't and you have to tell it manually. ++ Eike > 3) Hm, I wonder what other non-package Linux installers do about this issue. > The issue is (/opt/ is the FHS standard for install apps) yet (most users > don't have permissions to /opt/).
