This will make life easier for those running keepassxc-cli in the terminal.

Testing strategy

I tested my modification with the msi installer, but I was unable to build the exe installer. I haven't tested it myself, but the CMake documentation states that it should work.

CPACK_NSIS_MODIFY_PATH
Modify PATH toggle. If this is set to “ON”, then an extra page will appear in the installer that will allow the user to choose whether the program directory should be added to the system PATH variable

Type of change

  • ✅ New feature (change that adds functionality)

Also, just to be clear, when I tested the installer, no Qt DLL was present in the C:\Program Files\KeePassXC folder. Is that expected in a development environment?

We use our release tool to ensure deployment is setup correctly. The cmake alone is janky, fixing that with qt6

Is there anything that prevent this PR from being merged ? Or are you waiting on fixing the cmakelists when introducing qt6 ?
