[Ipe-discuss] Migrating to Qt6 for Ipe on Linux

I am considering migrating Ipe to Qt6.  The changes look a bit too much to preserve compatibility with Qt5, so if there is no compelling reason to also keep supporting Qt5 then I would just drop this.

If you know of any such reason (e.g. you build packages for an old distribution), please let me know.

(see https://github.com/otfried/ipe-issues/issues/457 for motivation and the changes that would be made).

This doesn't concern users of Ipe on Windows or MacOS.

Cheers,
 Otfried
