See here :
fresh install on debian, latest SDK. What am I missing?
Perhaps worthwile noting that I have vanilla Qt 5.15 installed as well (for other work).
Did you uncheck the examples from the components list when you downloaded and installed Sailfish OS SDK? I just went through the process, it was checked by default, and the following shows up when launching “Sailfish IDE”. Are you launching Qt Creator itself or the one provided by Sailfish SDK? It should be a distinct desktop file.
Note: You can double check that you installed the examples by using the Sailfish OS SDK Maintenance Tool and clicking the Add/remove components option, then choosing Examples.

Because of course I did (who needs examples anyways, right??)…
thanks
One would hope such sillyness to be not happening / necessary and fundamental tools not be unilaterally and coldhandedly dropped into examples… /RANT

If your nickname is a reference to what I think it is, I’d expect you to know development from before 2010, when these ways were commonplace. We developers are spoiled these days with templates and setup tools, and code completion etc.
But I agree it would be better if this template project would be moved to the default setup. I guess a feature request would be correct for this?
