Can anybody inform me where is a version of QTCreator that has ARM/Maemo/N900 as a build target? I used to have that in a previous incarnation of my dev PC, but I've tried several versions now and none seem to have it.
Or is it something that must be added on to QTCreator after install?

I don't think there is currently any way to build for Maemo using the Qt 5 series.

1. Is it even worthwhile to consider the choice of toolkit in this day and age? Hildon/GTK vs QT? Or should anybody starting a new project just launch into QT4.x?
2. Okay, let's assume we want to develop QT4.8 apps for now. Which version of QtCreator should I download? Does it make much difference whether I use the version in the Debian Squeeze repo as opposed to downloading one from Nokia's site (e.g. http://qt.nokia.com/downloads, which keeps timing out on me...) ?

I found conditions exactly as you describe, even long ago when the N900 was new! I never had success setting up a programming environment on any Ubuntu box, information was scattered everywhere, & I finally gave up on it. I'd been a long-time C programmer & having to admit defeat was difficult!
Is there any advantage to opting for Qt5 over Qt4 for a new project?
What about SCM? While one can certainly develop without it, it's pretty crucial in my experience to be able to step back through changes sometimes. I've used Subversion in the past, now Git is popular - what's a good choice for noobs who have no experience or preference in this area?
Right now I'm at the point where I want to use QtCreator to develop a simple Maemo5 Qt app, but the most recent QtCreator version (3.x) doesn't seem to have a Maemo target. Is there another version that has that by default? Or do I need to install some additional module(s) for Maemo targets?
I've looked over the documentation and keep running into hurdles. Any brain dumps would be appreciated - maybe I can massage them into an up to date overview of preparing a virtual machine for Scratchbox and Qt development.
