@k900:0upti.meK900(this is bradient, the only decoration theme available by default)16:57:30
@k900:0upti.meK900(and yes, it's called bradient, I'm not sure why)16:57:36
@k900:0upti.meK900
Also move implementation of the current built-in decoration to the "bradient"
plugin, named in glorious memory of the programmer-designed blue gradient that
will forever sear our eyeballs.

16:58:59
@k900:0upti.meK900Well I guess I know now16:59:04
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyWiggly17:00:36
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI assume Ubuntu or whatever just ships it unconditionally?17:01:06
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilytbh what we actually want is a "conditional propagated build dependency" or something.17:01:28
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybut that's not a thing.17:01:32
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily especially since nix run nixpkgs#some-qt-app should Just Work on a GNOME desktop. 17:01:44
@k900:0upti.meK900Ships what?17:02:51
@k900:0upti.meK900qtwayland?17:02:52
@k900:0upti.meK900I believe so yeah17:03:09
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily if it's just qadwaita, maybe the closure could be slimmed down? 17:06:00
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily I guess there's no way to avoid it bringing in qtbase though 17:06:14
@k900:0upti.meK900 Not really 17:07:33
@k900:0upti.meK900 It's QML so it needs declarative and everything else flows from there 17:07:47
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarWon’t that still be bradient for widgets, though? It seemed to me like qtwayland only handles window decorations.17:14:17
@k900:0upti.meK900The GTK widget style is in qtbase17:15:47
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarI have long gave up on consistent window decorations so I would just go default off17:15:55
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarAh17:16:02
@k900:0upti.meK900 qtwayland only brings the decoration plugin 17:16:09
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ I found this explainer https://jgrulich.cz/2023/03/08/explained-qgnomeplatform-and-adwaita-qt/ 21:01:25
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️Bradient is the reference CSD brought in by qtwayland21:03:28
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️QGnomePlatform actually applies the GNOME CSD21:03:52
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️Adwaita-qt is the qt style for widgets, so the styling of the app itself.21:05:13
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️ * 21:05:29
@normalcea:matrix.orgjasi 🏳️‍⚧️Oh wait QGnomePlatform is unmaintained, also Adwaita-qt21:09:22
