Successful Qt6 Build!

[MrReplikant]

Good morning, Trevor!

I'm happy to let you know that CMST builds against Qt6 without any modification to the code! I have successfully tested this in Debian Testing with the newest release of CMST, building first from source and then modding the actual Debian package to build against it, and confirming that it worked that way as well. If you'd like more details on the build process, let me know, I'd be happy to provide a more detailed write-up of it once I get the time!

@trevorbibb following up on this:

Here are the basic qt6 build instructions (directly from source) for Debian Testing/Trixie:

sudo apt install qt6-base-dev qt6-tools-dev-tools qmake6

after successful installation, run:

sudo apt-get source cmst && cd cmst-2023.03.14

then run:

sudo qmake6 && sudo make

and finally, to install:

sudo make install

sorry for taking so long to post this, I had to sort out which bits of trial and error were and weren't needed!
