[Bug 1233662] Re: Missing debug helpers in QtCreator/can't view STL containers in debugger

[James McCrae]

I have exactly the same issue after upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10 -
missing debugger helper, and a warning appears when running a program in
debug mode.  Exact same package versions, etc., as b3nn0.

I wonder if the issue has to do with migration from Qt4 to Qt5
libraries?  /usr/bin/qmake-qt4 is a symlink: qmake-qt4 -> ../lib/x86_64
-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake.  I also found qt5 under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/qt5, and surprised Qt Creator is not set up to use the qt5 versions
on 13.10 by default (though  I upgraded using the software updater
program - not an installation disc.)

In Qt Creator, when I go to Tools>Options>Build & Run "Qt in PATH" is
selected (location /usr/bin/qmake-qt4).  At the bottom "Qt version 4.8.4
for Desktop".  When clicking "Details" beside "Helpers: QML Dump", "GDB
Helper" says "not needed" and all buttons are deactivated.

(I also have the issue with "unkillable windows" when clicking
"develop", etc., tabs on welcome screen.)
