Not a bug, but a list of mockups describing how the features in the referenced blueprint in the summary (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/software-center/+spec/desktop-s-qtcreator-integration) are to be implemented.

And now for the second mockup...

<https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-s-qtcreator-integration> returns a 404. If the blueprint exists, I suggest adding a working link to the description. In either case, this seems to be work to do in QtCreator and/or developer.ubuntu.com, not USC.

[Kenny Strawn (realkstrawn93)]

Probably because it's in the Software Center, not the main Ubuntu project. This is the correct URL to the blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/software-center/+spec/desktop-s-qtcreator-integration

Updating the description accordingly.

Reopening description now that a valid link has been provided.

[Kenny Strawn (realkstrawn93)]

Updated title to better reflect location of blueprint...

[Kenny Strawn (realkstrawn93)]

Now that the URL to the blueprint (and what it's all about: literally a button that launches Qt Creator right from the Software Center and Qt Creator being given the ability to export apps to signed .deb files and push them directly to the software, just like Eclipse ADT does with Android) has been accurately given and pointed to...

Enthusiasm is appreciated, but as per the first three words of the description, "Not a bug." Bug reports aren't for posting theoretical mock-ups for a blueprint that is not scheduled for work.

This also doesn't really fit with the direction of Ubuntu. There is some integration available for qtcreator in the ubuntu-sdk, to create click packages of apps, for the phone/tablet, which will later also become the fully converged and preferred method for developers to publish their apps on Ubuntu.
