This is on a technical level not really possible right now, since Nimf wants both Qt5 and Qt6 present while they conflict in Nixpkgs. Here's my partial derivation: https://gist.github.com/pluiedev/acc12c97260c72b6f2c8b619e1fd7742

@pluiedev thank you for the explanation! It's curious how they depend on both Qt versions -- maybe in the midst of a migration?

I mean they also depend on both GTK 2 and 3, so I think this is purely because they want to build IM modules that can be used by all four of these framework versions
