I would prefer people to use qmake6. But what I meant here is that the
comment doesn't match the actual code.

debian/*.links syntax is "source destination", and it creates a file named
"destination" as a link to a file named "source".

If you run ls -l, it will show it in format "destination -> source".
I suggested to use the same in the comment, which will be "qmake -> qmake6".

Great!

In symbols, please use directly 6.2.0 instead of 6.2.0~rc2, because it's
very unlikely that ABI will change before final release.
