Hi Spike,
As far as I know, to test LXQt one only has to `make install` lxqt-common and
restart his display manager. lxqt-panel has the X11 session file and the session
startup script. As by default make installs in /usr/local, you may need to
`export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH`.
Another thing I wasn't aware and just tested it to be sure is that the session
file may be installed to /usr/local/xsessions, and you will need to move it to
(or create a symlink from) /usr/share/xsessions to be able to choose it.

Dear all,
I'm trying to test the upcoming lxqt by building from sources and running into
a number of troubles.
For reference, I'm following this guide:
https://github.com/lxde/lxqt/wiki/Building-From-Source
First off, build would fail with a number of errors which I tracked down to
missing dependencies. I'm on Lubuntu 16.04 and I had installed all packages
specified here:
https://github.com/lxde/lxqt/wiki/Building-From-Source#ubuntu
however I had to install these in addition for the build process to work:
- libxss-dev
- libudev-dev
- libmuparser-dev
- libfm-dev
- libfm-qt-dev
once the build finished I was left wondering, how do I test this? There's no
"WM chooser/option" in lightdm that I can see, maybe because the build process
did not install the needed config files. As I was trying to figure out that I
noticed that lxqt-lightdm-greeter is deprecated. Does that mean that lxqt will
be using the current lightdm?
In any case, can anyone give me pointers on what to do next to get the whole
lxqt setup like under lxde (ie session, panel, pcmanfm, etc).
thanks,
Spike
