You should checkout 3.4 in qtcreator.

Also, instead of manually cloning qbs, delete all its content (leave an
empty directory), then execute git submodule update --init in qt-creator
root.

Looks like incompatibility of the cdb lib. Do you have Debugging Tools
installed?

To workaround this, you can comment out the following line in libs.pro
    exists($$CDB_PATH):SUBDIRS += qtcreatorcdbext

Approach 3: Build qtcreator.qbs using stable QtCreator:

Using  git submodule update should solve this.
