Dear maintainer,

we are currently preparing Qt 6.10.2 in experimental and in Qt 6.10, the binary 
package
"qt6-wayland-dev-tools" has been removed. Its contents have been moved into 
"qt6-base-dev-tools".

Your package build-depends on qt6-wayland-dev-tools and will thus need to 
depend on
qt6-base-dev-tools instead when Qt 6.10 is uploaded to unstable.

I will raise the severity to serious when Qt 6.10 has been uploaded to unstable.

Thank you very much.

I considered doing that but decided against it.

qt6-wayland-dev-tools might reappear in the future and then it's a 
completely different package. Packages need qt6-base-dev-tools but will 
still depend on qt6-wayland-dev-tools and qt6-base-dev-tools is pulled 
in by accident.

We have too many packages (build-)depending on the "wrong" Qt package 
because of all the Provides. I'm not going to make it worse.

Most of the affected packages have already been fixed, I don't see the 
need to keep the Provides around for 1 package that needs an update 
anyway.
