Hi everyone, From what I read at https://forum.antergos.com/topic/6487/qt5ct-has-priority-over-standard-plasma-settings-app/2, Lisandro's concerns are correct and qt5ct does appear to override Plasma's settings entirely. However, since qt5ct requires an Xsession file[1] to be enabled by default, could one solution be having the script exit silently if it finds any KDE environment variables?

I would really prefer if you didn't, at least not before you coordinate with us the Qt/KDE team. By the way qt5ct works it would probably interfere with Plasma and it's still another package using qt's private headers. -- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/ El abr 23, 2017 1:33 PM, "Mateusz Łukasik" escribió: Control: owner mat...@linuxmint.pl After year without any changes I go to upload this package to repository with myself as maintainer and Lisandro as uploader.

But qtx-config where provided by upstream whereas this one isn't, so I don't think this is a good idea in case upstream decides to re ship the app (it's still possible).
