Just out of interest, how close are these steps to the autobuild process? Do the dependencies and versions match, etc?

I believe they're different. The autobuild process uses Qt 6 and some hacks to generate an unsigned ipa. Xcode itself produces a signed binary which is installed to device or uploaded to AppStore Connect. I also use Qt5 as QT6 is buggy UI wise.

OK, I think we need to change autobuild to do the same thing, then.
