It is not about a library dependency.

It is about the fact that libqt6svg6 ships two plugins, without which Qt does
not support SVG icons and images:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/plugins/iconengines/libqsvgicon.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/plugins/imageformats/libqsvg.so

This is the reason why I made libqt5gui5 recommend libqt5svg5. If you do not
like depending on a library, maybe you can move plugins to a separate binary
package and recommend that?
