Others have pointed out that qt5 has a whole lot more lines of code... Also bear in mind, the kernel is in C, and qt5 is in C++. And C++ takes longer to compile (at least on our OS, comparing gcc to g++). Even a trivial "hello world" program (that works as either C or C++) takes around 2x as long to compile with g++. _______________________________________________ SlackBuilds-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/
