You may argue that it's okay because it works on x86_64. However, it
only works because Intel
didn't make use of the upper 16 bits of a 64-bit pointer in the past
although these were always
reserved. But that has changed now with the advent of 5-level paging
[2] where the bits 48-56 are
used as well.
I am not arguing anything, just stating that it's BD-Uninstallable
because of KDE (which is using Qt5).
Luckily, the Qt developers have understood that their code is broken
on systems with large
virtual address spaces, so they have reworked it and if you look at
the corresponding Qt6
packages, you will see that these all build fine on sparc64.
Another reason for libreoffice-qt6 which is in New since November. (But
as long as KDE is using Qt5... Or we disable KDE there.)
