* Add support for external paths when running ``pkgutil.iter_modules``.
Add support for multiple search paths to ``pkgutil.iter_modules``.
Correctly handle ``pkgutil.iter_modules`` with an empty list.
(:issue:`[#6529](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6529)`)
* Fix finding ``libpython3x.so`` when Python is installed with pyenv and the
python executable is not linked against ``libpython3x.so``. (:issue:`[#6542](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6542)`)
* Fix handling of symbolic links in the path matching part of the
PyInstaller's ``pkgutil.iter_modules`` replacement/override. (:issue:`[#6537](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6537)`)
Hooks
* Add hooks for ``PySide6.QtMultimedia`` and ``PyQt6.QtMultimedia``.
(:issue:`[#6489](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6489)`)
* Add hooks for ``QtMultimediaWidgets`` of all four supported Qt bindings
(``PySide2``, ``PySide6``, ``PyQt5``, and ``PySide6``). (:issue:`[#6489](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6489)`)
* Add support for ``setuptools 60.7.1`` and its vendoring of ``jaraco.text``
in ``pkg_resources``. Exit with an error message if ``setuptools 60.7.0``
is encountered due to incompatibility with PyInstaller's loader logic.
(:issue:`[#6564](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6564)`)
* Collect the ``QtWaylandClient``-related plugins to enable Wayland support in
the
frozen applications using any of the four supported Qt bindings (``PySide2``,
``PyQt5``, ``PySide6``, and ``PyQt6``). (:issue:`[#6483](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6483)`)
* Fix the issue with missing ``QtMultimediaWidgets`` module when using
``PySide2.QtMultimedia`` or ``PySide6.QtMultimedia`` in combination
with PySide's ``true_property`` `feature
<https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython/feature-why.html#the-true-property-feature>`_.
