The download size isn't really relevant, it's the amount of dependencies.
rclone uses Go AFAIR, so that's a lot less to build than Qt5.

I use it regularly, although not with NextCloud (I use the Qt client for
that as I run KDE). It's basically rsync for cloud providers and should
work well with NextCloud, although you won't get the automatic syncing of
changes that you get with the client

If it isn't broken, I can fix it.

[gentoo-user] nextcloud or owncloud and qt5 or rclone

2023-01-26 Thread hitachi303

Hi,

so until now I am running my box without qt5. Compiling takes so long.

But I am missing a client for owncloud or nextcloud. So I see 
nextcloud-cliend does not run without qt5. It does not need webengine 
but still. So I see as alternativ there is rclone. From the size of the 
download it seems to be even bigger.


Does anyone have experience with rclone? Or is there a third 
alternative? (except the using the web interface with firefox or 
anything like this.)
