Maybe impossible here, but if kf*-dependencies could be stripped out, keeping qt* dependencies, it would help quite a lot for this kind of transitional periods (including future transitions). Should be just a dream, though. :-( I hope upstream to decide supporting sane coexistence of previous and current kf*.

Or flavorizing with qt5/kf5 version alone stick with latest possible (older than ones for qt6/kf6) version until KDE6 becomes default on ports.
