The docs for MITK up to v2023.12 list Qt 5.12 as a pre-requisite; only in the current nightly does that update to Qt 6.6. They don’t explicitly say whether that’s a minimum or an exact requirement. I’ll start by trying Qt 5.15.x initially, and then once we know how that works, we can figure out how to proceed.
