I believe it did. I saw this issue again today before I had even run my
application, so it may also have something to do with building. Could be
anything that uses a QProcess. If it would help I can try to narrow down
which actions do/do not cause the issue, when I have some time. I would
imagine it's pretty reproducible, though.
