And we know that when something is shipped it's likely to get used despite debian-security-support notifications.

qtwebkit-opensource-src is currently a key package due to pyqt5's build dependency, that will need to be removed before there is a chance of removing qtwebkit-opensource-src from testing.

None of the python3-pyqt5.qtwebkit rdeps are key packages, so I suggest you upload a revision of pyqt5 without qtwebkit support and make the bugreports for the rdeps like this one RC to have chance of shipping trixie without qtwebkit.

Kind Regards,

Bas
