We (Linux users) are not as lucky as you think, the two installers come with maintenance tools as well, but don't play together, you would have to install them side by side (not tested). One allows you to develop with Qt/32bits <= 5.5, while the other Qt/64bits >= 5.0 The 32 bits comes with an old version of QtCreator, basically it's just a frozen version of the last official Linux-32 binaries. It might be useful for some thought. Anyway, there's definitely a bug on qt.io. Is anyone from the Qt Company aware of this?
