LXQt 0.15.0 for Slackware64-current
by Skaendo from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52NTG)
Anyone that would like to test out the LXQt 0.15.0 desktop environment on -current, here it is in all it's glory.
https://gitlab.com/slackdesk/lxqt
These are not compiled binaries, only SlackBuilds!
The build time for me on a C2D @ 2GHz w/ 4GB 800MHz RAM @ -j4 is a little over an hour, and comes to about 45MB.
Sorry that I do not have a "build order", I generally build in (and recommend) slackrepo. I'd be more than happy to help with a slackrepo config file if needed. Or if someone was to figure out the order, I would be more than happy to include it.
## A couple of notes ##
I have not tested this on 32bit Slackware, use at your own risk!
Please use the supplied openbox for the window manager, you will still need to select xinitrc.lxqt via xwmconfig. This makes LXQt completely standalone and no other DE's (XFCE) need to be installed in order for LXQt to function properly.
extra/pavucontrol-qt: This is an "official" LXQt package, but as it was tested it was found that it is just duplicating the stock Slackware pavucontrol. If you would rather run LXQt's Qt version, you should consider removing the Slackware package or else you'll have duplicates. Please note that removing the Slackware pavucontrol package and using only the LXQt pavucontrol-qt package has not been tested.
extra/screengrab: This is another "official" LXQt package that when installed is a duplicate application since lximage-qt has it's own screenshot application.
testing/organizer: This is not working at the moment.
