Public bug reported:
(I'm unsure about the right package to report this to)
The qt experience out of the box is currently a mess. Short of proper
Yaru integration, why not install qt5ct with consistent Ubuntu fonts and
icons and Breeze by default? Every qt app will work just fine with
Breeze. Currently we’re exposing a newcomer that barely knows that gtk
and qt are things, let alone different things, to a difficult manual
configuration process that’s not even well documented. That’s much worse
than theme integration issues. A new user wanting to launch lyx or
qbittorrent should just launch lyx or qbittorrent and have a pleasant
experience. That’s not so hard:
* Preinstall kde-style-breeze and qt5ct
* Set ubuntu fonts, dialogs and icons in qt5ct
* Add
export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1
to the default profile.
