Why QT creator asks to install NDK 21.3?

I have NDK 23.1 installed:

but do not have Android QT versions installed in QT Creator, but only Windows versions:

so it is not clear what does "All essential packages installed for all installed Qt versions" on the picture above mean.

When I open Devices tab QT Creator asks to install the following components:

Why does it ask to install NDK 21.3, but not some other version? Does it assume that all Android QT versions depends on NDK 21.3?

  • There are terribly annoying settings in %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\QtProject\sdk_definitions.json:

            "versions": ["default"],
        "sdk_essential_packages": ["build-tools;30.0.2", "ndk;21.3.6528147"],
        "ndk_path": "ndk/21.3.6528147"
