qtchooser is perfectly co-installable with Qt 6 libraries, and I don't see why we should disallow people to use qtchooser (for Qt 5) while also having Qt 6 installed. Eventually qtchooser will be removed, but the majority of Qt software is still using Qt 5 and not Qt 6, so it's still useful and it's very likely that users will have both Qt 5 and Qt 6 installed. -- Dmitry Shachnev
