Re: MythTV 0.36 in unstable

Are you using CMake rather than qmake when trying to compile with qt6?
What distro are you using to compile with?

Here are some specifics.

Replacement of QtWebKit: Qt WebKit is EOL (End of Life) and is no longer
supported in the Qt6 build path.

Web App Improvements: The new, enhanced web application, which replaces
the deprecated older web frontend, relies on modern Qt6 libraries.

Deprecated Legacy Web Frontend: The old web interface and API are no
longer maintained and will not work with Qt6.

Performance & Rendering: Qt6 allows MythTV to use the Rendering Hardware
Interface (RHI), which supports modern graphics APIs like Vulkan, Metal,
and Direct3D, leading to smoother performance compared to Qt5's reliance
on OpenGL.

Build System: While fixes/35 had issues with CMake and Qt6, MythTV 36
improves this integration, with special build instructions (CMake
presets) provided for targeting Qt6.
