Tellico 4.2 Released

[Marcelin Jose-Marcio Martins da Cruz]

Hello Robby,

Thanks for this new release which has some interesting features.

However, I'm afraid about the removal of Qt5 and KDE Framework 6.

I'm still under Ubuntu 24-04 which doesn't include yet KF6 and I compile 
myself Tellico because Tellico version in Ubuntu is still 3.5.3. 8-(

I won't ask you to let KF5 still for some time as I don't know how it 
changes on source code - I guess you made lots of code clean-up.

I hope next release of Ubuntu will include KF6.

Best regards and thanks very much for this very good software. Surely 
the best open and free in the category.

Marcelin
