Description Eike Hein 2009-09-17 10:23:37 UTC
It's possible to build FBReader with GTK+, Qt 3 and Qt 4 GUIs. The FBReader package in Fedora currently uses the GTK+ GUI. As a KDE 4 user, I'd prefer the Qt 4 GUI for better visual and behavioral integration. Hence I'd like for a "fbreader-qt" sub-package to be made available.

Comment 1 Michel Lind 2009-09-17 22:13:12 UTC
That'd be a good idea. I considered doing it in the past, so now that there is officially demand, I'll get to it. Thanks for reminding!

Comment 2 Eike Hein 2009-09-17 22:30:53 UTC
Lovely, thanks :).

Comment 3 Michel Lind 2009-09-18 18:55:12 UTC
I have updated the Rawhide package to split off the ZLibrary toolkit, and package the GTK+ and Qt4 UIs separately as well. Will create a test update for F-11 as soon as I do some preliminary testing (want to make sure the GTK+ interface is pulled in by default).

Per upstream's Debian packaging, you'd actually have to do this to get the Qt4 interface, once this lands:

yum install fbreader zlibrary-ui-qt4

Alternatively, to switch over to Qt4, just 

yum install zlibrary-ui-qt4
rpm -e zlibrary-ui-gtk

Comment 4 Eike Hein 2009-09-19 05:25:17 UTC
Sounds good, thanks!

Comment 5 Eike Hein 2009-10-16 16:50:44 UTC
Any update on the progress for F11? :)

Comment 6 Michel Lind 2009-10-17 20:43:29 UTC
Once I work out the dependency resolution -- right now, installing fbreader on a system that does not even have Qt installed pulls in zlibrary-ui-qt rather than zlibrary-ui-gtk.

Any suggestion welcome :) -- I have not got a better one than providing two virtual RPMs, fbreader-gtk and fbreader-qt
