Current package maintainers for the Qt framework in Debian decided on their own not to support the next significant branch , the release of which is scheduled for December. Meanwhile, support for the previous branch Qt 5 will continue unchanged. The delivery of Qt 6 in Debian will be ensured if new maintainers are found who are ready to provide support for packages with the new branch at the required level.
The reasons cited include a lack of time for quality maintenance of packages with Qt 6. Qt has a very large codebase, which requires a lot of time and resources for building, which the current maintainers lack.
It is specifically emphasized that the quality of code and of Qt Company are not related to the decision made.
