Just found this and I am unhappy about this outcome.
Currently, if you type "qmake" into the command line on a new (23.10)
Ubuntu with no qt, it says qmake is provided by the package qtchooser.
So I install qtchooser as recommended by Ubuntu, then I find out that
qtchooser is considered a dead
If you are using cmake you might get your builds to find the desired flavor by
setting
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to something like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6 or
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt5 either on the command line or by exporting
that variable.

The reasoning for rejection on the Debian side seems valid, and since

Note that because Debian has refused to even add Qt6 because QtChooser
is dead upstream by design, and I'm gathering as such should not be used
with Qt6, I opened a Debian bug suggesting that they mark
I was going to request this change into Debian as well, but appears that

I wonder if the situation can be improved though as if you are trying to
I stumbled over this setting up CI for a Qt project that supports both
Qt6 and Qt5. I confirm that creating a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/qtchooser/qt6.conf file with the contents:
```
/usr/lib/qt6/bin
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
```
and setting the QT_SELECT environment variable to `qt6` works
