On debian bullseye there's no qt6-tools-dev-tools package ...
Trying to identify either the correct package or when it gets added...
Hrm. ... it looks like it's only available in bullseye-backports:
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye-backports/amd64/qt6-tools-dev-tools
Now ... how do we handle this on the CI ...

> And should be resolved in a timeframe based on Ubuntu's priorities.
