b1ad7f938e2f71288e65a8c9a86b732b89a6a345 (qt/qtbase/dev) 94f28c2ed027d896d5100caa7c858a2c5310c882 (qt/qtbase/6.1)
Description
Make sure that Qt 6 executables that get installed into /usr/bin do not clash with their Qt 5 equivalents.
Proposal:
- Instruct distributions to install tools into /usr/qt6/bin, not /usr/bin
- Create links in /usr/bin that adds a '6' suffix to the tool name, e.g. /usr/bin/qmake6 -> /usr/Qt6/bin/qmake
- Make sure that the tools documentation mention both names
