Like I said, I'd be happy to comaintain the packages and keep an additional two eyes on them. In my draft[1] for pyside6, I've also found the python 3.11 incompatibility and removed it for further investigation. However, what I noticed, is, that upstream only has compatibility for python3 up to 3.10. Closing my draft, now that the package has been merged into the tree.
