Description Jason Spiro 2008-10-19 06:07:41 UTC
When users install KDE, please include the GTK-Qt Theme Engine along with KDE.  It is very useful:  it lets users customize their GTK fonts, and it lets them use their chosen Qt fonts in GTK apps.
Comment 1 Zayed Al-Saidi 2008-10-19 07:18:39 UTC
I think this wish should go to your favorite distribution not kde project. 
Comment 2 Jason Spiro 2008-10-19 14:54:06 UTC
But I have more than one favorite distro.  Why do you suggest I file this bug with them instead?  :)
Comment 3 Zayed Al-Saidi 2008-10-19 15:04:25 UTC
@ comment #2 

Because it is their job ! They decide which package should be included in their distribution not kde team.  
Comment 4 Jason Spiro 2008-10-19 16:00:33 UTC
Could you include it as part of http://extragear.kde.org/ ?  You, not distro maintainers, are the people who decide what gets into Extragear.  :)
Comment 5 Zayed Al-Saidi 2008-10-19 16:41:25 UTC
Ok, I will e-mail the maintainers of GTK-Qt Theme Engine if he want to include his package in the extragear or not.

cc: David Sansome, gtk-qt-engine maintainer

Actually, David, could you please ask gtk-devel-list[1] if they will accept gtk-qt-engine?  They already have an ms-windows engine, I don't see why they wouldn't accept another engine if it works well.  If they don't accept it, then please submit it to extragear.

What to ship is a packaging decision made by distros, not us.
