QGnomePlatform VS lumina

I've tried QGnomePlatform, which was a bit of a pain to compile on Ubuntu, and more importantly, didn't resolve the issue. It's also unfortunately no longer maintained, so even if it worked, it would be nothing more than a temporary fix.

Pull request. It was "rejected" because the maintainer wants to use LibDecor in a far future (how in far we dont know). Since November 2022, I just used this branch on my PC in the hope of QGnomePlatform port to LibDecor, and I didn't publish this branch anywhere. But I'm tired of waiting and uploaded this to AUR. I know, rewriting whole decoration is better, but i dont want to do it.

Check out qgnomeplatform issue #106 @GitHub for more information.

EndeavourOS has a Gnome based theme that is not compatible with Scribus, because it is build with Qt themes. Looks like there is a library that supports Gnome themes in Qt: https://github.com/FedoraQt/QGnomePlatform

This looks a lot like https://github.com/FedoraQt/QGnomePlatform/issues/106 which purports to be fixed.

It looks like QGnomePlatform is used.

Are qgnomeplatform-{qt5,qt6} installed? If so, you could try removing them. It's possible that QGnomePlatform isn't properly handling one of Qt's numerous scaling options.

I can reproduce here on F37. It's probably a bug in QGnomePlatform. Removing the relevant version of org.kde.WaylandDecoration.QGnomePlatform-decoration fixes it, as does forcing the app to use X11.

i think you need to install this https://github.com/FedoraQt/QGnomePlatform

https://github.com/FedoraQt/QGnomePlatform wasn't it made by Fedora/Red Hat?

Well of course they're not trying to replace macOS, for instance, but when an OS gets big enough to have offshoots and different front-ends and desktop environments and so forth, one would assume there are at least experimental attempts emphasizing ease of use, just like there are experiments to develop offshoots for any other purpose, from power users to pen testers. At least like, someone's toy project on GitHub or SourceForge. I just assumed BSD was big and well-established enough to have such efforts.

Besides GhostBSD, looks like there's also Lumina, and TrueOS/Project Trident?

Oh, you might also look at the Lumina desktop which strives for minimal dependencies and portability across Linux+BSDs.

You might be interested in Lumina.

DBus was used only in this part of the code, also i wanted to follow what lumina is claiming about not using linux frameworks.

Names are hard, but not to be confused with Lumina Desktop?

There are at least two more independent Qt-based DEs: Lumina and Deepin. Also, MATE and Cinnamon are forks of GNOME.

There are some more qt ones but no clue how actively they are developed: Lumina, cutefish, Trinity...
