By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Darrell 2010-09-14 23:27:22 CDT

QGrubEditor provides a mechanism for people to edit the GRUB menu.lst options,  would be a nice addition to Trinity, and would complement the similar tool for Lilo.

Can you post a link to the QGrubEditor sources?

I'm closing this as won't fix. We have to convert Qt4 code to TQt3, which is doable, but the old version does not support GRUB2, which is too much work.

Comment 4 Timothy Pearson 2012-11-19 13:17:06 CST

This also sounds like a perfect use case for the TDE Qt4 theme engine.  QGrubEditor does not use any TDE-specific features, therefore the only thing it natively lacks is widget style consistency with TDE, which the theme engine provides.

Comment 5 Darrell 2012-11-19 13:41:06 CST

If I understand correctly, users need only install the package from an appropriate repository, do not need to compile, and then like the old gtk-qt-engine, apply the settings in the new qt4 theme engine to apply to qt4 apps?

Comment 6 Timothy Pearson 2012-11-19 13:53:07 CST

You are correct.  The various theme engines (GTK3, Qt4) in TDE all take their inspiration from the original GTK2 theme engine concept, where the user only has to enable the theme engine in the appropriate toolkit-specific configuration utility (in this case qtconfig-qt4) to obtain widget uniformity between TDE and applications which use that toolkit.

I don't see any automake or cmake files in main/applications/qt4-tqt-theme-engine. How to build?

qt4-tqt-theme-engine application uses Qt4's qmake, so:

qmake-qt4
make
make install
