Unable to build/install Lightly on kde 6.

[linusrg1]

When trying via a git clone I get this error

`CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 will be removed from a future version of
  CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value or use a ...<max> suffix to tell
  CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

And when trying from manually downloading a zip of the source code I get this one:

CMake Error at /usr/lib/cmake/KF6KCMUtils/KF6KCMUtilsMacros.cmake:136 (message): Could not find metadata file for lightlystyleconfig, expected path was /home/izumiu/ダウンロード/Lightly-qt6/kstyle/config/lightlystyleconfig.json Call Stack (most recent call first): kstyle/config/CMakeLists.txt:22 (kcmutils_generate_desktop_file)
I checked to see if that file was missing and sure enough it was.

I am on plasma 6.1.3
Framework version 6.4.0
Qt version 6.7.2

I am running arch, and attempting to install lightly from the chaotic repo didn't appear to work either.

Ok so i figured out the package you need for kde is if installing it from the chaotic aur is lightly-kf6-git, however, while this allows the theme to work the configuration dialog for the application style will not open. The one for the window titlebar style will.

lightly-kf6-git doesnt build for me as I dont have kdecoration5 installed. I'll try manually installing it and see if that fixes it. I'm not sure why pacman wouldnt just manually install the dep

# options

: ${_build_kf6:=true}

change to ${_build_kf5:=false} in PKGBUILD. yay --editmenu -S lightly-kf6-git to edit PKGBUILD before installing.

Thanks, but even then the theme doesn't work. I mean: it just doesn't apply to any app on KDE 6 (it used to work fine on KDE 5).

Try Chaotic Aur repo.

That doesn't solve my issue.

This is my second try to install it. First time was like half year ago. All dependencies were installed without any issues, so installation instruction is pretty shitty.

There's a new fork https://github.com/Bali10050/Lightly

There's a new fork https://github.com/Bali10050/Lightly

the new fork has absolutely nothing to do with lightly's design.. at this point he could've written a new theme from scratch lmao
