kmymoney 5.2 needs respin

A new package for KMyMoney 5.2 was just released, but does not quite work fully.  The symptom is that any links on the home page simply do not work.  No error, but no linking.  The View Selector on the left does work fine, so there are ways to get to all the data and actions, but not conveniently.
I believe the problem is that this version was compiled against Qt6/KDE6.  Unfortunately, 5.2 is not fully ported to KDE6 and still needs to be compiled against KDE5.  Completing the port to KDE6 is the next major effort for the development team, once the 5.2 release is out and stable.
Thanks.
Update:  the main developer says a patch he just added to the 5.2 branch will also work (https://discuss.kde.org/t/v5-2-0-overview-links-not-working/35984/9)

[edit - correct that issue is with KDE6, not KDE5] Further update: When compiled against KDE6, 5.2.0 will NOT compile the KBanking plugin, which is needed by most German users, so unless 5.1.3 is also kept available, it might be better to compile 5.2 against KDE5 until the port to KDE6 is complete.

KBanking with kmymoney 5.2.5 didn't work for me. A recompile with the existing PKGBUILD worked fine including KBanking.

Maybe the build was broken?

I hope 5.2.5 was a typo, as only 5.2.0 is released so far.  However, I expect 5.2.1 to be released in the next day or so, which should adddress many of the issues.  5.2.1 should work fine with Qt6/KF6.  The problem with 5.2.0 was that while it would build with Qt6, aqbanking at the time would not.  With the latest releases of aqbanking and gwenhywfar, all should be good with Qt6/KF6.

[edit 8/5] 5.2.1 has been released.
