Some user guide:

My patchset contains multiple fixes/features in comparison to vanilla qt6ct:

  1. KDE color schemes support
  2. KDE QML applications theming support
  3. KDE's icon engine is used, fixing monochrome icons colors (I saw problems with e.g. Adapta Kvantum theme on KDE applications toolbars, like dolphin, they're grey when should be white)

xdg-desktop-portal allows you to have KDE dialogs in non-KDE environment without installing plasma-integration package. To get them, all you need is:

  1. Install xdg-desktop-portal + xdg-desktop-portal-kde
  2. If you have xdg-desktop-portal-gtk installed, rename usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals/gtk.portal to zz-gtk.portal (backend priority is in alphabetical order). You can add that file to NoExtract in pacman.conf.
  3. Ensure that session dbus instance is running correctly.

How to ensure that session dbus instance is running correctly when using xinit (DMs should already do the right thing for you):

  1. Ensure you don't have dbus-launch nor dbus-session-run in .xinitrc
  2. Ensure you copied the for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh loop from /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to your .xinitrc
  3. Ensure you have no errors in systemctl --user status dbus and the service is running. You shouldn't enable the service, it should be activated by dbus.socket.

In case of Wayland, you may need to integrate your WM with systemd (that's what one of the scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d does for X11): https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki#gtk-applications-take-20-seconds-to-start

qt6ct got archived on github so I took the liberty to completely fork it. I released 0.10 on my repo, I wonder whether we can ask to switch official Arch package to it?

Indeed, it would be nice if this could replace current extra/qt6ct which still uses archived upstream project.

Thank you for your work!

Great, I finally have dolphin in dark again. My eyes were hurting already ;) Thanks for providing this.

fair enough, didn't know there was a flag for it.

Isn't it enough to allow the AUR helper to ignore the arch, without editing the PKGBUILD?

Kyuunex commented on 2024-11-23 07:30 (UTC)

Any chance you could add aarch64 on line 9? I managed to get this to build on Arch Linux ARM and it would be cool it just worked without the user editing the PKGBUILD themselves. Same for qt5ct-kde.

Yeah fixed now, thankyou.

Thanks. This fixed the theming issue on my end.
