If you want to use tkPacman with Konsole as virtual terminal, you will have to change the tkPacman option "terminal" from
konsole -nofork -p tabtitle=%t -e %c
to
konsole --title %t -e %c
If I have to update tkPacman for some reason, I will also correct the command template for Konsole.

At the time this package was flagged, packages had been renamed for the kf5 to kf6 transition. Since this package hadn't been updated for a few years, it needs a general review. The license string needs to be updated to spdx identifier, and optdeps should be re-verified to ensure the package functions on modern systems.

@xiota, could you provide a list of KF5-related optdep that should be integrated? At first glance, I don't see any that are directly related to tkpacman.

Not working on 4K displays. Fonts can be upsized, but the software list doesn't adjust to the new bigger font sizes. See screenshot below:

@dustovich What you say is correct. However, you can increase the font size using the menu "Tools-> Bigger fonts" or the shortcut "Cntrl +". I hope this helps.

Anybody have any tips on how to get tkpacman to scale dpi. I have kde set to a comfortable 175% or 168 dpi but the tkpacman is very small on my 4k TV. I can't seem to find anything that will make tkinter apps change their dpi that isn't programmatic.

What the hell is going on? Why did "alamuk" file a deletion request for the package that I am maintaining?

@herremaw: Oh, I see, it's specifically with Breeze Dark, not with Breeze Light.

EDIT: It happens with the other Dark themes too. For now I'm using Krita Blender, since it's a decent middle-ground that doesn't have much negative impact on tkpacman.

@YAOMTC: I cannot reproduce your issue with respect to the strange mix of colour schemes. I neither see it on the XFCE desktop that I am using most, nor on the Plasma desktop. For completeness, I have to add that I am just using the default colour scheme of Plasma, the one that is chosen by default after installation on Arch Linux. Did you perhaps choose a different colour scheme on Plasma? If that is the case, can you tell me which one? Best regards, Wim Herremans

YAOMTC commented on 2021-01-12 06:22 (UTC)

tkpacman has a strange mix of color schemes for me. White on dark gray in the 'browser' and 'tmpdir' selections and in the pacman.log viewer, black on white in 'terminal', 'runasroot' and the search fields, white on light gray in 'fontincrement', light gray on white in the info box, white on white in the "help" box... White on dark gray in the search box there... Has anyone else had this issue? I'm using it in the Plasma desktop if that makes any difference.
