Details

Qt Creator has a dependency on the Qbs build tool. We added an AUR package for qbs a while back, which unfortunately conflicts with qtcreator in Extra. In order to move forward we need to get qbs into extra so that qtcreator can add a dependency on it and remove the conflict.
This task depends upon

Please note: Qbs does NOT stand for anything (Qt build system, Qt build suite, etc.). It is just "Qbs". Please restore the original description:

"Qbs: Build tool that helps simplify the build process for developing projects across multiple platforms."

No, as per Arch guidelines, the description should not include the name of the package and it should be concise. Please come up with a different description, in that case.

Besides, according to http://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_Creator_from_Git QBS stands for Qt Build Suite.

"Cross platform build tool", then. And I've corrected the wiki page to remove the reference to "Qt build suite".

Also see my talk at Qt World Summit (2:31 in) where I explicitly mention that it is NOT called Qt build suite.
