Hi!

The xca binary still links against Qt5 libraries, despite declaring Qt6
as a build dependency in Salsa commit 4eff3c03. This is due to missing
debian/rules carrying an explicit declaration instructing cmake to
select the Qt5 libraries. Specifically, this is debian/rules line 6,
export QT_SELECT=qt5.

Changing that to export QT_SELECT=qt6 allows correct build and operation
on amd64, both for the existing 2.8.0 version, and for the latest 2.9.0
version.

Thanks!

The above is still the case for 2.9.0-1, needs QT_SELECT=qt6 in
debian/rules.
