Thanks, but see below.

The problem is not that you use features from 5.15 (it is fully OK
that you expect this Qt5 version to be installed).  The problem is
rather that I get an error at the compilation stage, which is too
late.

Please add code to the meson and cmake build files that checks whether
the Qt version you need is installed.  If not, make them exit with an
error.  After you are done you can revert the work-around for older
Qt5 versions :-)
