Hi,

How stable is Lazarus compiled with Qt widgetset? I'm currently using the 0.9.26 (first stable release). I'll update to the .2 release (I think that's the latest stable version) shortly. I recompiled Lazarus IDE and quickly ran though some of the features I use the most - everything seems to work ok. Anybody use Lazarus with Qt widgetset on a day-to-day basis?

The reason I am asking.... I'm thinking of changing my primary development PC from Ubuntu 7.10 (Gnome based) to Kubuntu 8.10 or 9.04 when released (KDE based) and don't see the need to install all the GTK1 & GTK2 development packages if I don't need them. But if push comes to shove, I guess I can do so.

Regards,
- Graeme -

Yes :)
But I'm using latest SVN all the time, since many bugs (lclqt) is fixed in comparision with 0.9.26.XX.

I cant' help you about QT lazarus version but I can tell you that Kde 4.2 is very nice but, sometimes, annoying imho. When I write code I really appreciate more Gnome which is, for me, more practical. Further, with all the package kde can install on your machine I would not worry about gtk packages ;). Anyway, I don't ever have problems about distro version because I run Arch Linux, so I'm always ... bleeding edge ;).
