The situation is the following: 

kirigami-addons in unstable is Qt 5-based. A newer version in 
experimental is Qt 6-based and Qt 6-based only.
When we upload said version to unstable, it will break all reverse 
dependencies that still use Qt 5. For this reason, we created
kirigami-addons5 which will stay on Qt 5 such that applications still on 
Qt 5 can use it while we can update kirigami-addons to Qt 6. We have 
filed RC bugs against all reverse dependencies to migrate to kirigami-
addons5, but not all of them have been resolved yet.

Maybe it's time to simply upload kirigami-addons from experimental to 
unstable. This would break certain builds, but the migration is easy.
