Package: qt5ct
Version: 0.34-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear all,

although the man page of qt5ct proudly states:
  qt5ct hasn't options. It just works.
reality is that it simply doesn't start, but shows a warning dialog with
  The QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME environment variable is not set correctly
and that's it.

Best

Norbert

No it is not a bug. qt5ct depends on environment variables properly set up 
since desktop start (if I remember correctly there is a script for that 
installed upon installation). So you basically need to restart your whole 
environment after installing it if you want to use it.

I'm so closing this bug.
