Qt-Creator cannot build anything, because it does not find or accept any tool chain.

Please provide us with the command output that exhibits the problem.
Comment 4 Johannes Geiss 2012-08-10 15:03:15 UTC
I start Qt-Creator: qtcreator
and create a new project (Ctrl-N).

I select Application, Qt Gui Application, Name: Test, Create in: /tmp, Next

Now I see the first problem (NewProject.png)

I cancel and try to define a tool chain via menu: Tools/Option, see Options1.png and Option2.png.

What's the output of `readlink /usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/default` ?

linux-g++
Comment 10 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-09-03 07:49:14 UTC
You should report this issue upstream I guess..
Comment 11 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-09-09 05:39:28 UTC
Btw is it reproducible with qt-creator-2.5.2?

If 2.5.2 still doesn't work, please try with 2.6.0_beta, which has a rewritten toolchain+platform handling called "kits". Furthermore with 2.6 you should be able to force the usage of a given compiler even if QtCreator thinks it doesn't work.

2.6.0_beta (witch is actually 2.5.82 according to menu "Help/About Qt Creator") also failed.

Please try adding your compiler manually in the "Compilers" tab under
"Options" -> "Build & Run".

I can't reproduce this problem on amd64 box. Seems ppc specific? It would be nice to be able to reproduce it in another PPC box. CC'ing PPC

I tried it but it doesn't work either. (Version 2.5.0 and 2.5.2).

You should try with 2.6.0_beta (sorry for not being clear earlier), because that's the first version with the new "kits" implementation.

I tried to compile 2.6.0_beta but it failed because of bundeled botan. Even which external botan package it failed to compile (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383033).

Ehm, what do you mean it failed? Did you open a bug for this failure? The bug you pointed us is not really related to this (neither it does show us a build.log for bundled botan)
Comment 21 Johannes Geiss 2012-10-24 14:46:48 UTC
I created a new bug entry for this compilation failure: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=439514
Comment 22 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-03-08 09:45:02 UTC
Try 2.7.0_rc please
Comment 23 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-18 06:29:00 UTC
Can you try 2.7.0 please? (after unmasking it in package.keywords)

I am sorry, but I can't test this any more, since my computer broke down badly and now I have only MacOS X and no Gentoo anymore.

PowerPC are very hard to get nowadays :-(
Comment 25 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-20 19:07:45 UTC
Closing as TEST-REQUEST then.
