I understand the question. I know it's not your fault. maybe one day it will be better and users will be freer to choose. I certainly won't accept impositions and consider GTK a serious interface. but these are personal arguments. I apologize for the trouble. for me it's quite normal to use both GTK and QT apps.

can I install this package and keep lazarus-qt installed? if I use this package can't I choose to use lazarus-qt? I'm confused

No can do. Lazarus is designed to be installed with a GTK+ OR a QT runtime and therefore the core developer doing the packaging for the extra repository configured the runtimes as conflicting packages. The fight must be taken to Lazarus upstream developers, something I don't care about anymore TBH, I tried some 20 years ago and failed; may younger people gain some gray on their heads :-).

What I CAN DO is to create a split package. I don't care for the QT UI in particular and the last time someone asked he was a entitled brat not worth my time. And I think split packages weren't implemented yet. I'll give it a try ASAP.

Cheers.

@simona, take your complaint to the Arch Linux Extras bug tracker, where it belongs.

conflict lazarus-gtk2 / lazarus-qt5

Documentation is missing. In package() can add;

install -d "$pkgdir/usr/share/doc/winff/"
find . -name "*.pdf" \
  -exec install -Dm644 {} "$pkgdir/usr/share/doc/winff/" \; &> /dev/null

After a first try it din`t compile,but then with a second it goes... without restore.

Manjaro? Not my problem. Move along, nothing to see here.

I have lazarus and lazarus-gtk2 installed from the community repo of Manjaro and it don't build

toropisco commented on 2021-06-06 15:33 (UTC)

 Iniciando build()... An unhandled exception occurred ...

It compiles cleanly for me. @servimo methinks you have a broken system.

 Installing lazarus-gtk2 will remove: lazarus-qt5, lazarus-qt5 (lazarus-gtk2)

@simona, you must take your complain to the packager of lazarus-qt5 and lazarus-gtk2. Use the community section of the bug tracker.
