I'm thinking about downloading the source archives, but i'm not sure if 
they contain absolutely everything, like:
- I need webengine from qt
- I need (ideally) qbs from qtc.

For those interested, here is my (WIP) docker project:
https://gitlab.com/chgans/qtcreator-x86_32-docker-image

I'm planning to add Qt-5.9 too.

As a side note: My point about ini-repository broken script is that it 
is a very bad experience as a paid-customer. Luckily i'm all in for the 
"Qt Project/company", but new customer might be disappointed when they 
realise that the build instructions/systems are out of date and/or broken.
