Public bug reported:

I am on Kubuntu 26.04, and there is no Qt Design Studio in the
repositories. I need to use this software, and I would be happy if it
were stably integrated into Ubuntu by 26.10. A customer insists that I
use Qt Design Studio and that the code I write produce no warnings. When
I opened an project saved using Qt Design Studio in Qt Creator, there
were 10+ warnings and it could not run. Please add the Qt Design Studio
project so that I can work on these projects.

I initially tried `flatpak install flathub io.qt.qtdesignstudio`. It
lacked HiDPI, and it crashed after locking and unlocking my screen.

Now I am using the version from their Online installer. I'm launching it
from `~/Qt/Tools/QtDesignStudio/bin/qtdesignstudio`, and it works so
far. The installer asked me to accept the GPL3 and LPGL licenses, which
should be permissible for Ubuntu.

According to https://forum.qt.io/topic/138385/how-to-compile-qt-
designer-studio , Qt Design Studio is a modification of Qt Creator to
add some plugins. The Qt Quick Designer plugin is deprecated in Qt
Creator, so I need Qt Design Studio to have a working plugin version.
https://wiki.qt.io/QtDesignStudio#Building_and_contributing says that Qt
Design Studio lives in the same repository as Qt Creator. That means I
should be compileable from there but I don't know exactly how to or why
it's not in package `qtcreator=18.0.2-1build1`.

This RFP should eventually go to https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/ ,
but I'm not familiar with Debian yet.
