There seems to be a dependency missing: qt6-5compat. Without that it bails out with: masterpdfeditor5: error while loading shared libraries: libQt6Core5Compat.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

OK, updated to the QT6 version.

Nice, checksum is upstreamed now, we can automate!

Nice, we can update this one to qt6! Btw @pgoetz, could you add the auto-upstream checksums for the package? I'll be deleting the temp-package I made to fix the qt6 changes now upstream has a build for it.

Changes requested:

source_x86_64=("https://code-industry.net/public/master-pdf-editor-${pkgver}${_patchver}-qt6.11.1.x86_64.tar.gz")
...
_checksum=$(curl 'https://code-industry.net/checksum-information/' | grep -oP '[a-f0-9]{40}(?=.*master-pdf-editor-'"${pkgver}${_patchver}"'-qt6.11.1.x86_64.tar.gz)')
sha1sums_x86_64=("${_checksum% *}")

@Muflone I thought this was fixed, but the QT6 version of masterpdfeditor still has issues with the version of QT6 in Extras, 6.11.1. ninetailedtori has created a number of AUR versions of masterpdfeditor, including one for QT6. If you have to have it now, I would use that one. ninetailedtori's version pulls in newer QT6 packages from the Archive. This version is for boring, ordinary Arch users who want to stick to packages in Core/Extra. The current stable community edition of QT6 is 6.11.1 - that's why this is the version is Extra. I've reported this as a bug to the Code Industry team. Also note that this is entirely in keeping with the Arch philosophy: don't patch, report problems upstream. I'll upgrade to the QT6 version of masterpdfeditor if I'm wrong about this being an incompatibility.

This fix is still necessary on my end, even with the latest rebuild. Do let me know if anyone finds any issues!

Fixed it! But I can't push to AUR rn, it's down for maintenance so sayeth the git response :(
