I couldn't find any linux binaries. I now compiled from source, runs great so 
far.

I couldn't get vcpkg to work, I now built it regularly on Tumbleweed, all 
needed dependencies were in the repositories. The list for fedora in the 
instructions was a great start, after installing the equivalent packages from 
the opensuse repos, I only got a few missing packages with cmake. 

Now that I got the local compile working, I will try and build it on the 
opensuse build service. Is anyone else interested in the Qt6-builds? I can 
publish my repo here, once I got it built.

Best regards
Toby
