Hi Simon!

Since the initial prototype, the port has advanced very well and its current state can be summarized roughly like this: Does the port take into consideration the renaming of tooling to allow easier co installation of Qt 5 and Qt 6? As discussed in https://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2018-November/034381.html That thread doesn’t explain why qtchooser isn’t a solution. It does work without problems for all my use cases, and I certainly do have quite a few Qt versions installed in parallel. Part of the problem simply stems from the fact that Linux distributions want to put all the binaries into /usr/bin. As long as you keep separate Qt versions in separate directories there’s no problem I know of. Giving our build tools different names depending on the version can create other problems for our users, especially those that use some hand rolled build systems (and we probably have lots of those as well).
