Can you resubmit this patch using "git format-patch"?  Please also take
a look at the git log for conventions.  Some comments below.

Do you know why GCC is needed?  Normally the one provided by
gnu-build-system is sufficient.

The "qt" package frequently lags behind the "modular" Qt, so we try to
get rid of the former.  Maybe it requires some of the other Qt
"modules"?  What is the error message?

Wooooow, that's a lot of new dependencies!  Can you preserve the
alphabetical sorting of inputs?

Thanks for working on it!
