This is fixed upstream in [1]. With that change, FindQHelpGenerator
uses Qt5HelpConfigExtras.cmake which has the correct path:
set(imported_location "${_qt5Help_install_prefix}/lib/qt5/bin/qhelpgenerator")
However as Qt5HelpConfigExtras.cmake is in qttools5-dev, the affected
packages will need to build-depend on it in order for the fix to work.
That commit will be in 5.53.0 release, to be released on December 8th.
