Title:
  Qt6 QLibraryInfo returns wrong paths

Status in Stellarium:
  New
Status in qt6-base package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in qt6-base source package in Jammy:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The qtdiag program can be used to find the paths returned by
  QLibraryInfo:

  qtdiag --no-vulkan --no-rhi --no-gl

  In this output on jammy (22.04) with qt6-base-dev (6.2.4+dfsg-2ubuntu1) I see:
  Library info:
    PrefixPath: /
    DocumentationPath: /share/qt6/doc
    HeadersPath: /include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6
    LibrariesPath: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

    TranslationsPath: /share/qt6/translations
    ExamplesPath: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/examples
    TestsPath: /tests
    SettingsPath: /etc/xdg

  This is problematic.  For example, the DataPath /share/qt6 does not
  exist.  This can lead to various failures.  For example a Qt
  application using the Qt WebEngine might report:

  Qt WebEngine resources not found at /share/qt6/resources. Trying parent directory...
  Qt WebEngine resources not found at /share/qt6. Trying application directory...
  Qt WebEngine resources not found at /app/gpsbabel/gui/GPSBabelFE. Trying fallback directory... The application MAY NOT work.

  I note that qtdiag reports the correct paths on debian sid and
  qt6-base-dev (6.2.4+dfsg-4):

  Library info:
    PrefixPath: /usr
    DocumentationPath: /usr/share/qt6/doc
    HeadersPath: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6
    LibrariesPath: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
    LibraryExecutablesPath: /usr/lib/qt6/libexec
    BinariesPath: /usr/lib/qt6/bin
    PluginsPath: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/plugins
    QmlImportsPath: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/qml
    ArchDataPath: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6
    DataPath: /usr/share/qt6
    TranslationsPath: /usr/share/qt6/translations
    ExamplesPath: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt6/examples
    TestsPath: /usr/tests
    SettingsPath: /etc/xdg

  It is not clear to me if this is because of the difference in package
  versions, or some issue with ubuntu packaging.
