Yes. I have reported that about half a year ago as 922707.

Sorry for the duplicate. We haven't got to a full bug triage since the freeze, so we might miss some bugs.

Yes. And generated apidocs in debian-built packages are suboptimal because of this.

Correct. Hopefully this will get solved soonish.

This change is already commited in the Salsa repository.

Right, Scarlett went ahead with them, thanks Scarlett!

BTW the other culprits in this business are:

Do we need a separate bug for every one of them?

Ideally one per qt submodule source package that ships -doc packages. But not entirely necessary now it's on our radar
