The actual maintainers have said that they wish it to be.

Again, the Med Team has asked me to create a new package instead of attempting to use their WIP 1.1 code. 0.x is supposed to be pacakged separately from 1.x. Please read the all messages of the last bug at [3] for full context. Also FYI, libquazip1-qt6 already exists; we've already gone through that whole thing. This is just an otherwise identical package for Qt5.
