[Bug 1164504] [NEW] No automatic reconfiguration / reconfiguration feature when system environment changes

[Timo Jyrinki]

Public bug reported:

Continuation from bug #1135336 (as is bug #1164508). Now the system
default Qt is correctly recognized by Qt Creator at first run. However
if the system was not correctly set up on the first run, or if the
configuration changes, Qt Creator does not notice this and multiple
things in Qt Creator configuration may be broken.

Removing the configuration files is currently the only "easy" way to
make Qt Creator autodetect system environment again: rm -r
.config/Trolltech.conf .config/Qt* .config/Nokia*

Otherwise you can see the bug #1135336 description on how to manually
fix various pieces of Qt Creator configuration via settings dialogs.
