Yes, like mxedeployqt or using static linking.

At least when it was still in qttools that worked, e.g. https://github.com/
Martchus/PKGBUILDs/blob/15f921fb0cd412c148117faae508ce56d84762bb/qt6-tools/

Judging by the code, the move has likely *not* changed that.

Yes, last time I've checked windeployqt it wasn't cross-platform.
