Yes, things are not happy in musescore-land right now.  We had a bug in Qt 6.10.3 that prevented even the splash screen from starting up.  That was just fixed a short time ago, and now MuseScore segfaults on startup.  Rather than try to figure out the cause of the segfault, I would prefer to move to version 4.7.1 and see if it behaves better.  I needed two new packages to do that.  The first (json-schema-validator) passed review and was built for Fedora about 12 hours ago.  The second still needs a review: mnxdom, bug 2477713.  If you are a packager, you could help things along by doing the package review.  Otherwise, I will try to find someone to do it tomorrow.
