With focuswriter > 1.8.0 being based on qt6 if you don't have anything else qt6 based the load of dependencies is enormous.
Functionality is very little changed and so are the aesthetic qualities of the program.
Most likely you have a few other qt5 based applications so sticking to a qt5 edition makes sense.
Here is the difference due to new qt6 dependencies:
This is after an upgrade to focuswriter 1.8.0-1
and going back down to our own 1.7.6 rebuilt against qt5
Package (7) Old Version Net Change
libb2 0.98.1-2 -0.12 MiB
qt6-5compat 6.3.1-1 -1.29 MiB
qt6-base 6.3.0-04 -56.34 MiB
qt6-multimedia 6.3.1-1 -2.56 MiB
qt6-translations 6.3.1-1 -12.82 MiB
vulkan-headers 1:1.3.213-01 -16.72 MiB
focuswriter 1.8.0-1 -8.27 MiB
Total Removed Size: 98.13 MiB
Package (1) New Version Net Change
focuswriter 1.7.6-04 8.08 MiB
91MB more or 1200% the size of the application.
You make your own choice, we just make it easier for you.
read the note on ../focuswriter for the older 1.7.8
qt5 based pkg.
