We should fix this on the branch.  It's not really ok to tell people
they have to run current.  Arguably the best way is to change the
default option back to qt5.

How did you test qbittorrent with qt6?   I can certainly understand not
testing minor updates, but flipping from qt5 to qt6 is a big change.
