[Fatboy]

Good job Escaplion! Busy testing it and it flies! Still getting used to the LXQt environment though,but so far it is very pleasant.

Tulliana  has also done one HERE.

Some of the components you used from the AUR were already out of date, but that's OK. LOL

After looking in the AUR myself I found lxqt-qt5ct to come in really handy.
I'm also trying out lxqt_wallet, obconf-qt and my favorite audio application clementine-lxqt.
I'm still looking in the AUR for other QT5 based alternatives as well.

I've always liked connman when I used Enlightenment so I'm giving lxqt-connman-applet-git a go as well.

[Esclapion]

lxqt-qt5ct is new for me, i must have a look.

connman doesn't work on some PC, it's because i leaved it. It's a pity, because network-manager and gnome-keyring are the only one who use gtk3. Without, i can remove it and have a lighter iso.

@esclapion: do not forget gvfs. this is the only package on my system, which requires gtk3. i hate it, but i do not find an alternative.

@ajslye: lxqt-connman-applet works fine. i use it for about 6 months now. it has problems with dark themes, but it works well.
but i agree with esclapion: connman is great, if it works for you, but it lacks some functions of networkmanager. some people do need these functions.

i have tested qt5ct before, but i did not know there is a lxqt version available. i will test it. thanks!

[Esclapion]

It's recent, i think. I never noted that in the past. gtk3 is a "recommended" dependency, i don't know it it's necessary  for normal use.

[AJSlye]

The gtk3 recommended dependency of gvfs is only needed for recently used files support.
This would only effect gtk3 based applications that make use of GtkRecentManager.

Thanks. So, if it's only for gtk3 applications, it's not really necessary : if a calling gtk3 application needs it, it will brings gtk3.

@Esclapion
Yes, gtk3 is only one package under Arch/Manjaro so any gtk3 based application would install this support anyway.

@excalibur1234
If you don't mind me asking, what is it exactly that requires gvfs?
From what I understand, lxqt 0.10.x now uses solid instead of liblxqt-mount, so wouldn't the same be true of pcmanfm-qt?
I've removed gvfs and gvfs-afc from my system and all of my USB devices still come up and are mountable using the removable media applet.

Hmmm, really interesting.  We can simply remove gvfs and gvfs-afc, or we must add a package ?

From what I can tell so far, gvfs and gvfs-afc are only needed for pcmanfm, pcmanfm-qt should now be using solid.
However, I'm not finished looking at all the code yet.
