Comment (by RJVB):

 aaargh, I see I haven't followed port:qca at all, and in the time since I
 submitted even the newest `qca.diff` so much has changed in the stock
 `port:qca` that it's become just about impossible to merge "my" and
 "their" ports.

 This really makes me wonder why I even bother submitting patches and
 ports; my efforts are mostly being ignored.
 I see no other solution than to split off my qca-qt5 subports - or else I
 take over maintainership (qca no longer has one) and we just push my
 version. That would mean giving up on building the library as a framework
 but so be it. I'll start work on the split-off but finalise it only after
 a decision has been made.
