The layer configuration uses SPDXLICENSEMAP to change GPL-3.0-only to GPL-3.0 (and other maps). Inluding meta-qt6 results in _all_ GPL-3.0-only licensed packages to be changed to GPL-3.0. As a result, setting INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE += "GPL-3.0* LGPL-3.0* AGPL-3.0*" does not filter out GPL-3.0-only packages anymore. This means GPL-3.0-only packages still land in the target image. Adding GPL-3.0 to the INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE settings is not allowed, as Yocto has deprecated these licenses. This removes these license mappings so the incompatible license filter is restored.

Qt6 OpenEmbedded/Yocto Project layer
This layer depends on:
URI: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
and optionally:
URI: https://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded/
Yocto version support
The branching of meta-qt6 layer follows Qt branching scheme, that is
dev for the development branch, 6.x for each minor release and
lts-6.x for commercial LTS releases.
Following table shows the Yocto branches which are used to test each Qt version (x) and any additional Yocto releases that are stated in the LAYERSERIES_COMPAT (c).
| Yocto \ Qt | dev | 6.5 | 6.4 | 6.3 | 6.2 |

Commercial Qt
Qt is dual-licensed under commercial and open source licenses.
The license can be selected using the QT_EDITION variable. commercial and
opensource are valid values. The default value is opensource.
For commercial Qt users, the layer provides additional support with LTS (Long Term Support) releases for selected Qt versions and additional Qt modules licensed as commercial-only.
The LTS releases are available in branches named lts-6.x. The source code
for the LTS releases and the commercial Qt modules are only available for
commercial Qt license holders. They can only be built and used if you have
a commercial Qt license and you have set up SSH access to Qt Gerrit (see links below).
The commercial Qt modules are included in the build if the QT_COMMERCIAL_MODULES
variable is set to 1 and you are using a commercial edition of Qt.
QtWebEngine
QtWebEngine needs at least CMake 3.19, which is available starting from Hardknott. For this reason QtWebEngine is not tested on older releases.
Contributing
To contribute to this layer you should submit the patches for review using Qt Gerrit.
