[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64498] Qt 6 not detected correctly on macOS

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #64498 (project octave):

Thanks for trying to test this. Be aware that building Octave with Qt6 is
still in its early stages.
See: https://octave.discourse.group/t/transition-octave-to-qt6/3139

IIUC, the following commit added .pc files upstream (via KDE's mirror because
I don't know where the "actual" upstream is):
https://invent.kde.org/qt/qt/qtbase/-/commit/5b07f14a4ff6b08887473b1b583ee2f71dec6f76

Afaict, that change was before Qt6.4 was released.
I don't know the specifics when it comes to Frameworks and pkg-config. But it
looks like generating those files is skipped if `QT_FEATURE_framework` is
set.

How is this supposed to work without pkg-config (for projects that don't use
CMake as their build system)?

I'd guess this needs to be solved upstream.
