    Description

      QtIF has a dependency on QFace. It fetches QFace as a submodule. This is the .gitmodules file:

      [submodule "src/3rdparty/qface"]
          path = src/3rdparty/qface
          url = ../qtinterfaceframework-qface.git

      On git://code.qt.io/qt/qtinterfaceframework.git, this resolves to git://code.qt.io/qt/qtinterfaceframework-qface.git, with everything working as intended. When using the git://github.com/qt/qtinterfaceframework.git mirror, the submodule url resolves to git://github.com/qt/qtinterfaceframework-qface.git, which does not exist (or it's private)! Instead, the code is at https://github.com/qt/qtivi-qface. Vcpkg seems to use Github mirrors so I encountered the problem there.

      Without the submodule, the compilation succeeds but attempting to use ifcodegen features in a project fails at configuration.

      The change from qtivi-qface to qtinterfaceframework-qface happened in commit 770e08e4adb9fe31cf3fee55549fac7ea884476a in 2021. Hence, this seems to affect all releases since Qt 6.2.
