My message did not seek to getting everyone prematurely mourn the loss of 
their favorite packages. Many of those listed already have Qt6 porting work in 
progress but aren't quite there yet. Those will be safe.

However, it should be absolutely clear that we cannot wait with preparations 
until the moment that Qt5 actually breaks. At that point our cleanup effort 
will be much more driven by dependency pressure lower down the stack.
