Unable to install in mac with latest poppler

Seeing below error while installing in mac with latest poppler.

> node-gyp rebuild

Package poppler-qt5 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `poppler-qt5.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

Looks like latest poppler installs by default with qt6 not with qt5 anymore.
When i look at poppler pkgconfig folder all is see is poppler-qt6.pc not poppler-qt5.pc.

Is there any workaround to proceed further?

The above with minor tweak worked for me. I checked which qt packages I had installed from homebrew:'

% brew ls|grep qt
poppler-qt5
qt
qt@5

Then I ran:

brew unlink qt
brew unlink qt@5
brew link qt@5

Then I opened a new terminal and was able to successfully complete the install. I should note I have node locked down to v12 on the project in question just in case this still doesn't work with later node versions.

The above solution doesn't work with my system.
