QT6 App Migration
-
With the upcoming release of UT 24.04-2.x, will QT6 be available for use by apps/ And if so, is there a straightforward upgrade path for developers to follow? And if QT6 isn't available for use by everything yet, is there a general timeline on when we should expect it to be so?

will QT6 be available for use by apps
Reading the blog post, it seems a yes.
In Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0, Morph Browser receives a major upgrade in underlying browser engine from Chromium 87 to Chromium 134 which, while not the latest yet, improves compatibility with today's websites and web applications significantly.

Reading the blog post, it seems a yes, but not clearly.
The blog post was was precisely prompted me to make this topic.

and web applications significantly
web applications and apps are 2 different things I'd guess.
For fun I tried to replace in the launcher.sh for the piano app of @pparent the qmlscene6 (provided by the app, qt6 is packaged into the app) by the system one and it failed miserably so at the moment I think that QT6 is not available for apps, at least not in a straightforward way)

If my memory serves me correctly, morp is in QT6 but the rest is in QT5.
I imagine the change must be down to clickable... -

You may try to remove the libraries form the app repository (or temporarily move them elsewhere) to see if it works better.

I did not succeed.
Anyway I think now that the qmlscene system executable available in 26.04 is for QT5.Your version prints a warning that it is deprecated, the system one don't display it so I guess it's an older version hence for QT5.
