What are your favorite qt4/qt5 applications ?

[qanjaro]

libfm-git must be gtk-free, though I've got gtk2 now because of firefox hopefully soon to be replaced by otter-browser when it's based on qtwebengine and has improved bookmark  and password management.

[mt12345]

libfm-qt-git fails to build.

I replaced firefox with opera.

I has never been  big big fan of pcmanfm, In past I was using qtfm (qt5).
(andromeda is awkward and I don't like doublecmd)

If I remove pcman/libfm will I loose ability to mount disks and pendrives?

[qanjaro]

Haven't tried libfm-qt-git for some time, but libfm-git seems to be gtk-free.

Opera (new, Chromium based one) needs gtk.

You don't need pcmanfm for mounting. Previously I've used ldm, but recently replaced it with easymount (no AUR, but easy to install: http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/easymount?content=157956).

[mt12345]

OK I will try libfm-git.
I use opera12 (I dont care it's outdated  )
I like QtWeb, Quzpilla is still not ready. Otter - I didn't know this one.
I know Easymount but don't we have a mounter in panel already?

[qanjaro]

That panel mounter needs some gtk as far as I can remember.

[mt12345]

I removed gtk2. libfm and pcmanfm were removed as dependencies.
(lximage depends on libfm too but I replaced it with qimageviewer earlier).

I couldn't install libfm-git because of conflict with libfm-extra.
lxqt-panel and lxqt-runner depend on libfm-extra.
after reboot I lost wallpaper and panel-mounter doesn't work. Looks like it works only when pcmanfm runs in daemon mode?

[excalibur1234]

you can replace the functionality of lximage-qt with qimageviewer and screengrab (lximage can also take screenshots).

i do not like pcmanfm-qt (it is dependent on gtk2) and it is heavily integrated into lxqt. i do not know exactly how, but it sounds reasonable that it handles wallpaper and mounting...
try easymount for mounting. now, you only need a qt wallpaper changer/app.

do you know a qt replacement for gnome-keyring (or do you just not save any passwords)?

[qanjaro]

Now, for wallpaper and desktop icons you need pcman to be running in daemon mode, but if you only need wallpaper-ing you may use feh.

I prefer phototonic as image viewer and wallpaper setter (via feh or pcman).

pcman doesn't need gtk really, but lxqt currently seems to need for some things, but then I've removed some time ago lxqt (and feel guilt –a bit!).

So in my system if I try to install libfm-git pacman just warns me to replace libfm and libfm-extra with libfm-git, i.e. no appearent issue here.

I don't know a replacement for gnome-keyring and yes, don't save passwords.

yes that's exactly  what I did.

pcmanfm-qt depends on libfm, libfm depends on gtk2.

someone help me please with easymont? ideally contribute to AUR? Im not a coder, you know...
wallpaper ? feh  will do

do you know a qt replacement for gnome-keyring (or do you just not save any passwords)?

I keep crucial passwords in my head, some of them in cloud (currently opera link, before firefox/mozilla sync or chrome/google account)

[qanjaro]

easymount depends on pmount. So first install pmount from the repo. Then download easymount from the above link. Extract the easymount archive; go to that extracted directory; open a terminal in that directory; then one at a time issue these commands:

Code: [Select]

qmake
make
sudo make install
You need to enter your password at the last terminal command.

Now you've installed it and you can autostart it if you want.

So in my system if I try to install libfm-git pacman just warns me to replace libfm and libfm-extra with libfm-git, i.e. no appearent issue here.

If you finish the operation there will be an issue.

try:

pacman -Rc libfm-extra

[qanjaro]

I've tried and yes:

Code: [Select]

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
libfm-git: /usr/include/libfm exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
But then first I've removed pcmanfm-qt (with libfm), then installed libfm-git and then pcmanfm-qt without any issue.

thats what I tried but I miss something:


$ make
