   1 LXQT On Slackware
   2 =================
   3
   4 If you want to install and use LXQT on Slackware, you need more than just
   5 the packages in the lxqt package directory for Slackware 14.2 or -current.
   6 All of the below are also required if you want to compile LXQT yourself.
   7
   8 Openbox
   9 -------
  10
  11 LXQT needs a Window Manager, it does not have one itself.  LXQT will offer
  12 you a choice of fvwm2, xfwm4, fluxbox on its first start but you can also
  13 install openbox. If you do prefer openbox, get these two packages from my
  14 'slackbuilds' repository,
  15 http://bear.alienbase.nl/mirrors/people/alien/slackbuilds/ :
  16
  17 obconf
  18 openbox
  19
  20 Dependencies
  21 ------------
  22
  23 Openbox is a dependency for compiling obconf-qt but if you are not interested
  24 in using openbox you can skip installing openbox and compiling obconf-qt.
  25
  26 The real mandatory dependencies are related to Qt5 and the KDE Frameworks,
  27 upon which LXQT was built.
  28 Therefore the following packages should be obtained from my 'ktown'repository,
  29 http://bear.alienbase.nl/mirrors/alien-kde/ below the directory specific to
  30 your Slackware release and architecture.
  31 More specifically from its subdirectories 'deps', 'kde/frameworks',
  32 'kde/plasma' and 'kde/plasma-extra':
  33
  34 Please note that kde5 was merged in -current as of early December 2020 and thus
  35 you are no longer required to obtain those packages from different locations as
  36 they are now included in current on the main tree.
