Request MX-23: Qalculate! Qt

#1 Post by Dearth »

Hi,

will it be possible to add the latest version of Qalculate! (Qt version) to MX-23 repo? Currently in the Debian stable repo only the GTK version is available, release 4.5.1.

When running KDE Plasma, having the consistent Qt interface is nice to have.

I will take a look. Seems like Norbet was taking a look at Debian, but never got around to it before he parted ways with them: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... bug=993587
MXPI = MX Package Installer
QSI = Quick System Info from menu
The MX Test repository is mostly backports; not the same as Debian testing

Here's my try at it. It will be in the MX 23 test repos, but you can get it earlier here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yQLQO_ ... sp=sharing

You will also have to install libqalculate22 and libqalculate-data 4.7.0, also included. That happens automatically when installing from a repo, though. I backported the gtk version from Sid while I was at it...

I have installed the package from Google Drive and it works great for me, both the CLI and Qt versions.

Hope it will be moved to stable soon.

Thank you.
