Qt Creator 9 fails to build:

[qtcreator9-build] cmake ../qt-creator-src-9.0.0/
CMake Error at /usr/lib/llvm-15/lib/cmake/llvm/LLVMExports.cmake:1634 (message):
  The imported target "mlir-tblgen" references the file

     "/usr/lib/llvm-15/bin/mlir-tblgen"

  but this file does not exist.  Possible reasons include:

  * The file was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.

  * An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.

  * The installation package was faulty and contained

     "/usr/lib/llvm-15/lib/cmake/llvm/LLVMExports.cmake"

  but not all the files it references.

On Ubuntu 22.10 in KDE Plasma 5 on X11. BTW Qt Creator 8 builds fine.

Qt Creator 9 fails to build:

Install `libmlir-15-dev`

Install `libmlir-15-dev`

I tried, it said it's already installed:
libmlir-15-dev is already the newest version (1:15.0.2-1).

I recall installing it while trying (and failing) to figure out why it doesn't build.

Did you compile it on Ubuntu 22.10?

- When displaying the API context hint, the content is now based on the Qt version noted in the project (i.e. Qt 5 documentation is shown for Qt 5 projects, and Qt 6 documentation is shown for Qt 6 projects).

- Also added the ability to change the line spacing, and resolved performance problems when selecting very large blocks.

- The ability to change the priority of the background Clangd threads used for indexing was added to the settings.

- It is now possible to edit C++ code style settings directly from the main settings dialog without opening a separate dialog. ClangFormat settings were moved to the same section.

Then it should be mlir-tools Ubuntu – Details of package mlir-15-tools in kinetic

Thanks, it wasn't installed but installing it still didn't help, then I did
sudo apt-get build-dep qtcreator
but all was already installed
then I did (because I ran out of ideas):
sudo apt-get build-dep dolphin
and it installed a lot of packages after which for some reason cmake ran successfully and now I'm compiling Qt Creator 9.

Edit: 20 minutes later, it compiled successfully and runs fine.

*arch install flashback*
I remember installing anything with qt, and this kind of unwanted apps showed up.

Arch is very bloated.

I compile my C/C++ stuff from the terminal and use Qt Creator as a text editor, and it's the best one I tried.

Well, good for you to find it useful
