Thanks for your bug reports, these issues are already being discussed on the
gle users list.  The main issue is that qgle needs to be ported to qt5, or
(temporarily?) dropped from the package, otherwise the whole package will
not be in bullseye.  Laurence already sent me some patches, I will try to
get this into a package.

You know that you can run gle on the command line? I rarely use qgle, for me
it defeats the purpose of "programming" graphics, but I can understand that
new users look at this first. If you want to learn gle, however, I suggest
that you have a look a gle and the examples in the manual or on the website.
