Heya folks! A new kernel and Mesalib have landed in Unstable (spoilers!), and we're pushing the sync back a few days to allow further testing. This concludes the announcement.

In France, there is a saying that says: "Prudence est mère de sûreté", which in English could be translated by: "Caution is the mother of safety". 🐵
We can not say it better.

    penny-farthing

    I remembered enough of my high-school French to read that without your translation. Those lessons ended about 60 years ago, so I was quite surprised. 😆 And I agree with your comment. A few days wait to be quite sure about the update is nothing compared with what we went through with Solus about a year ago.

    Hello just wanted to ask is it somehow possible to add Waydroid support in a future update of Solus (Plasma) ? That would be really awesome.

      Hi 8-)
      Just want to describe my workaround with the horrible looking qt5-app theming on budgie.
      I just installed kvantum manager, choose the KvArc theme(KvQogir can be picked at gnome-look, which is also nice) and selected kvantum in qt5ct. Furthermore edited the ~/.profile with export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct and thats it.

      I have no delay at start and tray icons are wirking too. (qbittorrent). I know this dosen't make the qt-apps follow the system theme but it's not a big deal for me.

        User_007 Thank you for this. I had yet to bother trying to track down the issue with qt5 app themes when I stumbled upon your fix. My tray icon for qbit was fine before this fix though, and now it shows up as a settings cog, but that's likely because I chose a different theme that matched my Budgie theme (KvArc theme still had the cog tray icon), and is a small price to pay for usable qt5 apps.

        What happens, if you set a icon theme like papirus in qt5ct? Still no right tray icon?

        I never heard about kvantum manager.
        My workaround for qbittorrent is alias in .bashrc:

        alias qb='QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct qbittorrent 2>/dev/null &'

        So now I am launching qbittorrent from the terminal. With light theme, but at least it's usable. No proper tray icon here.

        I was trying to create a launcher with MenuLibre but without success..

        Qt5 theming should be significantly improved after the next sync.
