Bug 267042: devel/qt6-translations: not being properly registered as a
dependency
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267042



--- Description ---
Hi,

First of all thanks for the hard work done on porting qt6!

Unluckily I've noticed a small glitch. A port having devel/qt6-translations
will not get it properly registered as a dependency in the package, causing
poudriere to constantly rebuilding the port due to a new dependency.

This shows up with this message in the poudriere log:

===>  Building package for py39-qt6-pyqt-6.4.0
actual-package-depends: dependency on /usr/local/share/qt6/translations not
registered (normal if it belongs to base)
pkg-static: DEBUG: -/


(note, the log mentions the py-qt6 port I'm working on, but patches are still
not ready for publication though)


I have discovered this happens due to the dependency for devel/qt6-translations
referencing a directory and not an actual file, something pkg does not act well
on.

So I'm attaching a patch changing Mk/Uses/qt.mk to reference a random file from
the ones installed by the port. This fixes this issue.
