Dear Release team,

The mainstream Qt version is 6.x nowadays, but many packages are still
using Qt 5. So I want to request a transition for updating it from 5.15.15
to 5.15.17.

The transition is prepared in experimental and there are no known blockers.
Qt WebEngine will be updated to 5.15.19.

I have submitted a merge request with the ben file:

Unfortunately the reverse dependencies are affected by the recent upload
of cmake 4.x to unstable. Let's wait until those have been fixed (or at
least the number of FTBFS is somewhat reduced).

Hi Sebastian!

It looks like cmake was reverted to version 3.31.6 in unstable.

At least three of cmake-4 bugs are in my packages, I will try to take care
of them, although it shouldn't block the transition anymore.

Indeed, let's go ahead and try to finish this before cmake 4 is uploaded
again to unstable.

Cheers
