Thanks. I see, you're only providing official packages for debian and ubuntu. 
I'm on opensuse since 5 years and it's been at least 10 years that I built a 
package for debian/ubuntu.

I would build for tumbleweed and slowroll, as these are the the only opensuse 
distros shipping qt 6. I will get in contact with the Application:Geo 
maintainers as they are the ones packaging qgis for opensuse:

How do you build your debian packages? Do you build them locally and then push 
them to your repository, are you using github? I really like the open build 
service, as it will automatically rebuild once a dependency changes, but so 
far I've only used it for suse distros. I can't say how well the process works 
for debian, ubuntu or fedora.

Best regards
Tobias
