The Python installed by Brew is independent of the Python used by
LLDB, which in turn is bundled with XCode.

So unless there's some environment variable set or such, the Brew
installation should not be responsible for what you see.

Feel free to open a bugreport at bugreports.qt-project.org and attach the
debugger log (contents of right pane of Windows->View ->Debugger Log)
and/or send me that in private mail.

Maybe some explanation is in order:

Part of the issue here was that XCode/LLDB unexpectedly switched from
Python 2 to Python 3. Most of the Python glue code Creator uses for
interfacing the "native" debuggers (LLDB, GDB, CDB) actually works with
both Python 2(.7) and and 3(.3+), but there have been a few items
in LLDB-only code that were 2-only, as LLDB was so far 2-only.

The second problem was that the event reporting of LLDB changed,
de-railing the state tracking in the integration. 

What you report now ("starts, but breakpoints are not hit") was the
state we've witnessed locally between fixing the first and the 
second part. This /could/ mean, that the fix for the second part
was not sufficient for your setup.
