Qt5Base_jll incompatible with julia 1.12

[mbaz]

Trying to install Qt5Svg_jll on Linux, julia 1.12.3 fails:

pkg> add Qt5Svg_jll
   Resolving package versions...
ERROR: Unsatisfiable requirements detected for package OpenSSL_jll [458c3c95]:

I don't have much experience dealing with dependencies in artifacts, so I've been unable to find the cause. Please let me know if you need any more information.

Update: the issue is that Qt5Base_jll depends on OpenSSL v1.1.10, whereas julia 1.12 introduced OpenSSL_jll v3 as a standard library.

If I understand correctly, this line: https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/blob/29c7adf81d564c9337d5b8b3a2e31eb9f4d8c53c/Q/Qt5Base/build_tarballs.jl#L199 in Qt5Base requires OpenSSL_jll version 1.1.10, which seems extremely old, and is no longer available.

Branch 1.1 of OpenSSL_jll is at 1.1.23: https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/blob/29c7adf81d564c9337d5b8b3a2e31eb9f4d8c53c/O/OpenSSL/OpenSSL%401.1/build_tarballs.jl#L5

(This corresponds to official release 1.1.23). What is the best way to proceed?

https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/8855 is a PR to fix this and needs more testing.

Thank you for the pointer! It seems this issue is difficult to solve, though. In my case, moving to Qt6 seems like the natural solution, but I'll need to test if it's possible.
