Hi, I have made changes you suggested to the description and have attached a new patch, thank you. I tried to get the tests to run, but they have errors and I do not know enough yet to fix them myself: qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found. Is it possible to get tests like this to work when building packages in isolated environments? Or is it necessary to disable these tests? Thank you for your time!
