--- Comment #3 from Michael Weghorn <m.wegh...@posteo.de> --- (In reply to Timur from comment #2) > 1.

The qt6 VCL plugin is essentially the qt5 VCL plugin built against Qt 6 (plus some changes needed for Qt 6), commit adding it: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/88d57cf241209ffec9eaed3e523942ab51af6db6 For it to be available in Ubuntu, it would have to be packaged, which apparently hasn't happened so far. One reason for this might be that the qt6 VCL plugin was never mentioned in the LO release notes - mainly because it was initially mostly meant to be used for own experimenting before making it "official". But at least from my (developer's) experience, I haven't run into any issues that are specific to the qt6 VCL plugin (as compared to the qt5/kf5 one) for a while when used together with recent versions of Qt 6. (Well OK, looking at this meta bug again, there is the issue with video playback on Wayland, tdf#145735.... tdf#135386 was just moved here because making a11y work requires changes to the Qt library in addition, which aren't going to happen for Qt 5.) Triggered by your question, I have now submitted a packaging request to the Debian bug tracker: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1019740 (I think Ubuntu takes over LO packaging from Debian, so having it packaged in Debian would then also make it available in future Ubuntu releases.) > 2.

Desktop environment based on Gtk might possibly not change the style for Qt-based applications when switching to dark mode in the OS settings (but I don't know exactly). What should still work is to set the QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE environment variable (and make sure the corresponding Qt style packages are installed), e.g. I get kf5 with a dark theme when I start LO with QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE="Adwaita-Dark" ./instdir/program/soffice.bin --writer even if the system theme/style is not set to dark mode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
