Hello, i try (and succeed) to run 2.24 on my arch.
- for the libwebp.so.6, i use "libwebp052" from AUR
- for the libre.so.5, i use a more stupid approch : i download libre2 from ubuntu repo https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libre2-5 , unpack it and past "libre2.so.5.0.0" and "libre2.so.5" directly inside the "activsoftware" directory.
- i don't see your problem with "libQt6WebEngineCore" :-/
So it seems to work from my 5min test, but does it work well... I see some new hack from promothean :
- a gnome-shell extension to disable ubuntu gesture ???
- some rules in /etc/udev ???
- a new export rule in the start script : export QTWEBENGINEPROCESS_PATH="/usr/local/bin/activsoftware/QtWebEngineProcess" that seems to do nothing as i try with or without it.
Maybe, it will help you to come back as our beloved maintainer !!!

This package is currently outdated.
However the new version 2.24.69389 [1] has the following new dependencies:
libweb.so.6 - Not packaged by arch, only .7 is available
libre.so.5 - Not packaged by arch, only .9 is available
It is looking for symbol _ZN3re23RE23Arg12parse_stringEPKcmPv in its own packaged libQt6WebEngineCore.so.6, which does not exist. If you make it use the libQt6WebEngineCore.so.6 form the Arch package qt6-webengine, it is looking for Symbol _ZN9QtPrivate25QMetaTypeInterfaceWrapperI4QUrlE8metaTypeE, which does not exist in the Arch version of the library.
I'm unable to resolve these dependencies, disowning.
