This is easy to do, but rather drastic obviously. Any objections to this?

Guess not ^^

The static methods of KTipDialog are still used. In https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/-/issues/22 is discussed if that feature should be kept.

Should we make a general decision if this should be deprecated without a replacement?

There were no objections when asking the VDG group and agreement when mentioning it in the KF6 weekly. Lets do this!

The preparetips5 executable should consequently be removed at branching
