Build SystemHelp Wanted

Description

OBS is currently missing packages for many of latest distro versions.

  • Ubuntu 24.04
  • Debian 12
  • Fedora 41 (build failure)
  • OpenSuse Leap 15.5, 15.6

Could be done together with updating config for 2.4.0. On some of the latest distro versions could be switched to QT6.

  • Metadata and Desktop file update. Can't they be modified without storing modified copy in obs repo. Also there are some other details related to executable rename I wanted to discuss.

Research direction
Investigate the Open Build Service (OBS) repository for Cutter, likely at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:rizin/cutter. Check the single comment for additional context. Examine the Fedora 41 build failure logs in the OBS project. For the Qt6 switch, review the current build configuration files (e.g., .spec or .dsc files) to understand the existing setup. The metadata and desktop file update should be done without storing modified copies; consider how to use upstream files directly via OBS's source service. Read the issue comment for details on the executable rename discussion.
