the case (but if it is, then we need a different enough approach that this
most likely has to be deferred to Qt 6.5 at least).

To be clear for everyone: this can happen (depending on where we introduce the
new API) if some code is using QStringConverter with codec names that it
currently doesn't support. This is likely to be very limited, because that
code is currently not working (it always produces an invalid encoder/decoder).
That probably means it's blind porting from QTextCodec which did support more
codecs. The fix is to simply recompile.


Could you please elaborate a bit? What does "mixing Qt versions" mean in the above?

Thanks,
