Trying to dynamically load and call a C++ shared library is some serious challenge.
mangled names everywhere, vtable shenanigans and if dealing with Qt also qobject/qmetaobject weirdness...
But it works! I am able to dynamically create a QApplication, spawn a QWebEngineView, set some parameters and create a fake QObject class to receive some events.
All without linking to Qt directly, and compatible with both Qt5 and Qt6.
This way if the system does not have gtk3 webkit, Qt is fallback.

A little milestone achieved, Carla is working with Qt6 now! 🎉
I wish to be doing other things than updating to new frameworks to stay relevant, but at least Qt5 -> Qt6 compatibility is quite okay.
The annoyance is more on PyQt side that loves to break backwards compat. And Python somewhat too.
I regret having chosen Python for the frontend but a bit too late now since there is quite a lot of code...

around Lichtenberg station, 10m or so walking.
Reachable by U5, S5, S7 and S75, plus a few tram lines too.
So quite a good location.

After months looking finally getting a place for myself! 🎉
Exciting times ahead, but first a whole bunch of packing, moving, unpacking and assembly... in between a trip to Portugal and then Finland again.
It is going to be a while until life stabilizes again, but there is potential for great things.

to be fair I had the same when using waf too and needed a "waf install -j 1" to fix.
but it shouldnt be a failure that the build system allows of course
