While I agree with you on a Qt-based frontend over a GTK-based one, what they're doing is valuable because it splits Anaconda into a service that lets anyone implement whatever frontends they want. If we wound up having an enterprising developer interested in Fedora KDE to make a frontend for Anaconda leveraging Kirigami, we absolutely could. Will we? I don't know, probably not (at least for a while), but it might happen someday. 😉 -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
