I wonder whether it would have been possible to ask the release team
for a freeze exception in advance for this release of Qt, as running
the LTS on a stable release would ease future maintenance in Debian
stable.
Now though it's likely too late for that, as a new Qt could push back
the schedule in case existing software breaks due to it.
