Ah, this is a problem!
With Cargos dependency resolver, we may end up with cxx-qt-lib 0.6.2 as the actual dependency here, as it can choose another compatible version.
In which case, reexport_dependency would no longer work!

And we have the same issue with future minor versions, where Cargo may choose a newer version...
So maybe we only include the part of the version in the links key that actually includes a "breaking change".
E.g. cxx-qt-lib-0.6.
However, that will lead to issues if two downstream dependencies enforce exact minor versions that then will have conflicting links keys...

The other route in which we could solve this issue is to use another name in the reexport_dependency.
I guess we could use the name from the manifest instead 🤔

Any opinions @BenFordTytherington @ahayzen-kdab ?

@LeonMatthesKDAB Hmm so maybe we reexplore this with the build system refactor in 0.8?

Yes, we still don't have a firm answer on what takes care of exporting dependencies anyway.
Maybe that will need to be its own build step...
