Bug#843257: No GTK style
Package: qt5-style-plugins
Severity: important
Dear maintainer,
Qt 5.7 doesn't support the GTK style anymore. The qt5-gtk-themeplatform is next
to useless (what I care about is consistency between widgets!).
It looks like the qt5ct package (ITP #822246) could still make use of use the
gtk2 style, which has unfortunately been removed.
I don't use KDE, which is basically required for the 3 plasma themes also
sharing some GTK themes. To get consistency between gtk2/gtk3, you have to go
for unpackaged themes (such as Numix, or Arch-Theme), which provide decent
uniformity. QML even adds a completely different look and behavior, that
makes me cringe in all platforms I've used it on, ESPECIALLY on the desktop.
This is INSANE.
As a developer, providing something that integrates nicely is important.
Even though I understand the logic here, the GTK+ style is important
cross-platform widget set. Please build the GTK2 style.
