Dear maintainer,

your package ovito currently FTBFS because it uses a deprecated name for qt6-svg-dev.

libqt6svg6-dev was renamed to qt6-svg-dev in 2022 and the old name was kept as a Provides.
Recently though, this old Provides was removed and thus your package FTBFS now.

This can be fixed easily by simply replacing

     libqt6svg6-dev

with

     qt6-svg-dev
     
in the build dependencies. There are no functional changes and your package should build as before.

Thank you for maintaining ovito.
