Add some more dependencies on Qt6.

I've marked most of these as 'role=nodep' so that jhalfs doesn't pick up
multiples in cases where it's not needed.

Transmission, Libreoffice, CMake, Poppler, and Appstream now have Qt6
ports working well.

I have left Qca, gpgme, polkit-qt, and other KDE-related packages alone.
They do have support for Qt6, but we should not list them as they are
incompatible with the Qt5 versions and we could end up causing
unintentional breakage by doing this.

580 is not needed and won't be downloaded if using only en-US as a language.

599 you disabled java.

612 bundled copy of boost by removing this flag.

640
641 <para>
642 <parameter>--enable-release-build=yes</parameter>: This switch enables a
643 Release Build. <application>LibreOffice</application> can be built as a
644 Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation
645 paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the
646 words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).
647 </para>

653 the bundled one.
654 </para>
655
656 <para>
657 <parameter>--with-system-*</parameter>: These switches prevent
658 <application>LibreOffice</application> from trying to compile its own
659 versions of these dependencies. If you've not installed some of the
660 dependencies, remove the corresponding switches.

673 <command>make distro-pack-install</command>: This does a normal
674 install, but if you add a DESTDIR environment variable it will also
675 install a lot of (text) gid_Module_* files in the DESTDIR, to help
676 distributions which want to break the package into parts.
677 </para>
678
679 <para>
680 <option>--with-parallelism=&lt;count&gt;</option>: This switch
681 tells <application>LibreOffice</application> to use &lt;count&gt; CPU
682 cores to compile in parallel. (Do not include literal angle brackets.)
683 The default is to use all available cores on the system.

694 via PackageKit.
695 </para>
696
697 <para>
698 <option>--disable-firebird-sdbc</option>: By default, the ability to
699 connect to a <application>firebird</application> database is enabled.
700 Add this switch if you do not need that feature.

708 <para>
709 <option>--disable-postgresql-sdbc</option>: This switch disables compiling
710 <application>LibreOffice</application> with the ability to connect to a
711 <application>PostgreSQL</application> database. Use it if you have not
712 installed <application>PostgreSQL</application> and you do not want
713 <application>LibreOffice</application> to compile its bundled copy.

718 instead of skia.

722 <option>--enable-gtk3-kde5</option>: This switch allows the Visual Class
723 Library, which is responsible for widgets, to be built with KF5 file
724 dialogs if GTK+-3, Qt5 and Plasma are all available.
725 </para>
726
727 <para>
728 <option>--enable-lto</option>: This switch will enable Link Time
729 Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB).
730 This is said to make <application>LibreOffice</application> programs
731 load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a
732 spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference
733 in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work
734 files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile
735 might be much slower.
736 </para>
737
738 <para>
739 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
740 <application>Java</application> support in
741 <application>LibreOffice</application>. Java is needed for the
742 deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by
743 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice
744 <application>base</application>. It is also needed for some optional
745 user interface components.
746 </para>
747
748 <para>
749 <option>--without-fonts</option>: <application>LibreOffice</application>
750 includes a number of third-party TrueType fonts. If you have already
751 installed some or all of the same fonts, you may prefer to use the system
752 versions.

760 and library directories must be specified in <envar>QT5INC</envar>,

762 respectively.
763 </para>
764
765 <para>
766 <option>--enable-evolution2</option>: Enables support for Evolution
767 address books through Evolution Data Server. Note that Evolution Data
768 Server must be installed for this feature to function.
769 </para>
770
771 <para>
772 <option>--enable-qt5</option>: This switch enables support for integration
773 with Qt5 and the Qt5 theming engine. If &qt5-deps; is not installed in
774 <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, the include and library
775 directories must be specified in the <envar>QT5INC</envar> and
776 <envar>QT5LIB</envar> environment variables.
