Description
The executable pyside6-lupdate cannot be found after clean I install PySide6 in virtualenv.
In Windows, there is a lupdate.exe instead of pyside6-lupdate.exe in site-packages/PySide6/. In Linux (Ubuntu), there is not any lupdate related executable in the package installation directory, and compare to PySide2, there is a pyside2-lupdate in the directory.
It seems the tool is not correctly copied in the setup.py mentioned in this comment.
I know that pyside6-lupdate is deprecated. However, I think this issue is relatively easy to fix by adding or adjusting the entrypoints in setup.py.
The error log is displayed when running pyside6-lupdate directly after installation.
$ pyside6-lupdate --help
