Package: firewall-applet
Version: 2.4.0-1
Severity: wishlist
Forwarded: https://github.com/firewalld/firewalld/issues/1504
X-Debbugs-Cc: onitake@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

Qt5 is slowly getting phased out, but firewall-applet still depends on
python3-pyqt5.

According to the upstream issue [1], pyqt6 will be picked automatically if
available, but there still seems to be a bug preventing it from working
correctly.

Nevertheless, please consider replacing the dependency with python3-pyqt6 once
the upstream issue is sorted out.

Thanks!
