I've tested both programs with my own 5.15.18-1 libQt5Svg-5.dll 
successfully.  There was a hiccup in that both provoke a SIGSEGV in an 
internal Qt5 memory fill function that uses avx2 cpu instructions.  When 
I rebuilt qt5-base with flags to turn that usage off, the resulting 
5.15.18-2 qt5-base DLLs allow both programs to launch to idle state.

The qt5-base DLLs have been updated to -2 and uploaded, still as test 
versions.  The qt5-svg DLL upload (also is a test version) is awaiting a 
permission change when jturney has a chance.

Marco, you may uncover more issues as you explore the limits of 
doxywizard and/or 'octave --gui'.  I'll probably have to take over all 
the '^qt5-*' packages and update them to 5.15.18 but I'll give priority 
to the libs you run into trouble with.
Cheers,

..mark
