[package] qt/>=6.3.2: version conflict with freetype

[honigbot]

Description

When "conan install"ing qt, qt requires libpng/1.6.40 while the qt dependency freetype/2.13.2 requires 1.6.42.
In the freetype/2.13.2 package recipe there was an update few days ago that updated libpng from 1.6.40.

After checking this actually breaks any qt6 version in conan-index, from current 6.6.1 to 6.3.2. Have not testes qt5.

I tested it with conanfile.txt:

[requires]
qt/6.6.1

[options]
qt/*:shared=True
qt/*:qtdeclarative=True

[generators]
CMakeDeps
CMakeToolchain

[layout]
cmake_layout

It can be fixed by overriding the dependency with conanfile.py:

from conan import ConanFile
from conan.tools.cmake import CMakeToolchain

class SomePackage(ConanFile):
    ...
    default_options = {"qt/*:shared": True, "qt/*:qtdeclarative": True}

    def requirements(self):
        self.requires("qt/6.6.1")
        self.requires("libpng/1.6.42", force=True)

    def generate(self):
        tc = CMakeToolchain(self)
        tc.generate()

Can also reproduce this error with qt 5.15.12.

[daniel-heater-imprivata]

Yes. Confirm that I am seeing the same issue on qt/6.6.1

[daniel-heater-imprivata]

This should be fixed by #22683. @honigbot @philippun1 . Can you confirm?

[philippun1]

@daniel-heater-imprivata With #22675 merged, I now can confirm it fixed.
