Pull request overview
This PR introduces an Azure Linux component overlay for qt6 that rewrites the %qt6_qtwebengine_arches macro to disable qtwebengine-gated code paths in downstream specs, with the goal of enabling removal of qt6-qtwebengine from the distro.
Changes:
- Add a dedicated
base/comps/qt6/qt6.comp.tomlwith afile-search-replaceoverlay to rewritemacros.qt6-srpm. - Regenerate rendered output (
specs/q/qt6/macros.qt6-srpm) reflecting the macro change. - Move
qt6out of the unmodified inline component list (base/comps/components.toml) and update theqt6lock fingerprint.

Override the qt6_qtwebengine_arches macro to %{nil} so that dependent packages
(gpsbabel, libksysguard, python-pyside6, python-pyqt6, qt6-qtwebview) skip
their qtwebengine-related code paths, to allow removal of the qt6-qtwebengine
package from AZL.

Remove qt6-qtwebengine and qt6-qtwebview from Azure Linux. All dependent packages have already been rebuilt without these packages via the qt6_qtwebengine_arches macro override (PR #17125) and the release bump (PR #17171). - Delete qt6-qtwebengine dedicated comp.toml, rendered specs, and lock - Remove qt6-qtwebview inline entry from components.toml, rendered specs, and lock - No package list entries to clean up Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>
