BUILD.md sais this depends on python3-qt5. Any chance to build this against python3-qt6?

Qt 6 was released almost three years ago, and torbrowser-launcher is the last software on my system depending on Qt 5.

KDE/Plasma 6 has been released and distros started moving away from Qt5, it's now deprecated and soon to be obsoleted.

Although, it seems devs made an excuse that "Tor Browser, theoretically, should be flatpack, so, practically, we will not do either and let it bitrot". I'm not a fan of Tor Browser even existing, I was fine with local service being used as selective proxy in vanilla Firefox but normal working mode was sabotaged by state's DPI-censorship and service sources do not have whatever workarounds built in Tor Browser, so I've just moved away from Tor completely.
Users being tied to some half-baked binaries from mysterious developers is the opposite of "security", after all.
