I see you did a complete Qt-style conversion in one commit. Thank you. I'll withdraw my artisanal / partial conversions from Gerrit, since they are less complete than yours. I couldn't get your CMake conversion to work, though, with released Qt 6.10 or 6.11 open source versions (as packaged on FreeBSD). There's CMake machinery being used in your patch that doesn't exist in those versions. So downstream on KDE Invent I took your patch and then chopped at it so it does build with older CMake machinery. Downstream is at https://invent.kde.org/adridg/qtpim/-/tree/work/qt6/release? ref_type=heads with the intention to package it for some distro's from there, if only so that there is a "QtPIM for Qt6" out there already as a crutch to help port things that depend on Qt5PIM to Qt6. But what next? Supposing this CMake conversion gets merged (and IMO it should), then it falls apart on the build step. There are many downstream "make it compile" patches -- lots of them submitted upstream in Gerrit but I'm afraid I'm making a mess there -- that are needed together with the CMake conversion in order to get it to pass CI. I'll +1 your conversion now. [ade]
