tailscale
won't install, asks for QTS 5
This happens even for platforms like arm x19 or 32bit x86 for which QTS 5 isn't available
The package requires a /dev/net/tun device, which QTS5 provides and QTS4 does not.
It appears in the past it was possible to install Qvpn to create the tun device and then tailscale could use that one if you weren't actually using Qvpn. Could the restriction for QTS 5 be lifted and a warning to install Qvpn to use tailscale or a check done to see if the device exists when installing on QTS 4.x?

This has extensively been discussed here: https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg/issues/72 (and older threads).
The gist is:
- Install QVPN. It enables the tun devices that Tailscale needs.
- Unpack the files from the existing package and manually move them to the QNAP or - of course - build your own (something I am not able to do when I briefly tried).
I've just updated to 1.46.1 by extracting the binaries. I find it bad style to link to my own post, but FWIW: https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg/issues/72#issuecomment-1529672224
