Tarballs which are needed as Qt 5 and Qt 6 Builds

These projects provide supporting functions to KDE apps so to ensure Qt 5 based KDE apps continue to function distros should build them twice, once with Qt 5 and once with Qt 6.

kio-extras (this one for now has a separate kio-extras-kf6 tarball, discussion ongoing on what to do for the final release)
audiocd-kio
kio-zeroconf
libkgapi still needs a Qt 5 version for kio-gdrive and a Qt 6 version for pim bits.
libkcddb needs a Qt 5 version for k3b and a Qt 6 version for kio-audiocd.
libcompactdisc
kaccounts-integration, kaccounts-providers (not functional at the moment, ignore those for now)
libkexiv2

Dependencies that need updating

Many dependencies used by our apps now need newer versions due to the switch to Qt 6, distros will now need to build these for Qt 6.

KDE Frameworks 6 (distros should ship both KF5 and KF6 packages for app compatibility) - released alongside this
Plasma 6 - released alongside this
gpgme - use latest releast
qca - use latest release
packagekit-qt - use latest release
grantlee - now renamed KTextTemplate and part of KDE Frameworks 6
libaccounts-qt - use Git master
signond - use latest release
signon-plugin-oauth2 and signon-ui - use Git master
kweathercore - use latest release
libquotient - use latest release
kdsoap6 - use latest release
kdsoap-ws-discovery-client - the kio-extras Qt 5 tar uses an internal static copy so no additional work is needed. the kio-extras Qt 6 tar needs the latest release of this built for Qt 6 https://jriddell.org/2023/11/07/kdsoap-ws-discovery-client-0-3-0/
qcoro - use latest release
futuresql - use latest release
kquickimageeditor - use latest release
qtkeychain - use latest release
pulseaudio-qt - use git master
libqaccessibilityclient - use latest release
polkit-qt - use >= 0.175.0
phonon and phonon-vlc - use latest release (note phonon-gstreamer should be dropped)
kuserfeedback - now part of KDE Frameworks
ktextaddons - use a Qt 6 build of the current release https://download.kde.org/stable/ktextaddons/

Misc

dolphin-plugins is sadly still Qt5 based while dolphin isn't, this will be fixed for the next release
kmoretools, which is not released, is wanted by dolphin but will be removed in future, patch it out with https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/2cd3d58eec5695899c26ca66a631fb79867b6584
