Reason: Perpetually stuck on Qt5 despite recent releases made under the influence of AI. A Qt6-based snapshot is provided for testing without keywords, currently as app-admin/keepassxc-2.8.0_pre260316-r1, but it is unclear when keywords will be restored let alone stabilised. Alternatives are app-admin/keepass, app-admin/pass which can import kbdx files, app-admin/vaultwarden, app-admin/bitwarden-desktop-bin and probably many more. AppImage or Flatpak versions also available as last resort. Bugs #949231, #967905. Removal on 2026-05-11.
