[Qt-creator] 4.5 beta removed Ant support?

[Nikos Chantziaras]

Is there a place that lists up to date requirements, prerequisites 
and/or dependencies? Are there "reference configurations" for Android 
NDK and SDK versions? According to that page 
(http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/androidgs.html), the recommended version of the 
NDK is 10e, which is several years old now.
