Has anyone tried to build Fontmatrix with qt6?

fontmatrix did not work with qt6 because of conflicting dependencies

Thanks. I really should start using a clean chroot for building.

It fails to build without having qt5-tools installed.

By not providing "FindQt5LinguistTools.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5LinguistTools", but CMake did not find one.

I returned to the original dependency matrix, since

namcap fontmatrix-0.9.100-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst 
fontmatrix W: File name usr/share/fontmatrix/resources/Samples/ru/Гоголь contains non standard characters
fontmatrix W: Dependency mesa included but already satisfied
fontmatrix W: Dependency included and not needed ('qt5-svg')
fontmatrix W: Dependency included and not needed ('qt5-tools')
fontmatrix W: Dependency freetype2 included but already satisfied

Thanks for the heads-up, will fix this soon.

qt5-base should be listed in the depends list, not makedepends list. Also, qt5-webkit shouldn't be listed in makedepends (as it is already in depends). Also, when checking the CMakeLists.txt, you should add at least freetype2 in the depends list.

Updated. Hope you don't mind I didn't increase the pkgrel.

Thanks for this epic help too, will update the package soon :D

@SanskritFritz, what's so epic about it? Just try building the package in a clean chroot.
