Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

I'll try to check this week. In the meantime, please try to apply this : If people want stable LXQt, don't use the daily PPA, upgrade to Xenial and use official repository. Most people should use this, and there is a LXQt metapackage. If people want dev version of LXQt (git snapshot), usr the

Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

Well that is what the instructions are doing. Are you implying saying basically, "tl;dr install the package and you are good"? -- Simon Quigley tsimo...@ubuntu.com tsimonq2 on Freenode -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at:

Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

Perhaps it would be good to explain that this metapackage does in one step what the directions proceeding do? On Apr 24, 2016 21:48, "Simon Quigley" wrote: > I've modified the wiki page[1] to state: > > "At this time, we are waiting for the LXQt metapackage to be included in

Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

I've modified the wiki page[1] to state: "At this time, we are waiting for the LXQt metapackage to be included in the Ubuntu repositories. For now, use the ppa:tsimonq2/lxqt-meta PPA for an up-to-date metapackage. The purpose of this PPA is to simplify installing the packages required for

Thank you Simon, I do not have system to upgrade anymore so I won't have a chance to test. But If I find some time I'll try to do a fresh install in a VM. On Sun, Apr 24, 2016 at 8:35 PM, Simon Quigley wrote: > Greetings, > > I found out what the problem was and I have

Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

Greetings, I found out what the problem was and I have adjusted the wiki page. The difference from the daily PPA and my PPA is that my PPA is *just* the metapackage and the daily PPA has more than that. -- Simon Quigley tsimo...@ubuntu.com tsimonq2 on Freenode -- Lubuntu-users mailing list

Re: [lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

@Simon .Thank you but like I said I found the issue. one or all of these 3 were missing after installing the metapackage . libkf5screen6 and/or libkf5screen-dev and/or libkf5screen-bin. As far as the command I ran they were simple copy and paste from the wiki page. After that I started to

[lubuntu-users] issues Installing LXQT\ubuntu using the wiki page

So usually I use this repo to do my installs https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/lubuntu-daily But as expected for a dev daily build it can break. So for more comfort I went to the wiki : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt Witch has a nice easy to read howto . I upgraded to
