Details

    • Suggestion
    • Resolution: Out of scope
    • P3: Somewhat important
    • None
    • 5.1.0 RC1
    • Packaging & Installer
    • None

    • qt-windows-opensource-5.1.0-rc2-msvc2012-x86_64-offline.exe

    Description

      • The most important component of the binary package should be the precompiled "Essential modules"
      • A user could opt to install the precompiled libraries, but forego the bundled Qt Creator (e.g. to use Qt 5.1 with Qt Creator 2.8)
      • Currently, it is possible to deselect "Essential modules" but not "Qt Creator". I suggest making it the other way round.
