Do you happen to know what is needed on our side to support Fcitx5? Is it https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/fcitx5-frontend-qt6 ? If you (or somebody else) wants to help, here is the Docker image we're using for creating the nightlly Appimage: https://gitlab.com/scribus/scribus-ci-docker You can use it to locally create an Appimage and test it on your computer... I can provide instructions for doing it. |

Yeah I am using Scribus AppImage Nightly 1.7.0,and I am very sure that I have installed the fcitx5-frontend and I can use Fcitx5 at Dolphin/KDE Settings and other Qt6 apps.But cannot using it on Scribus AppImage. |
|
|
I remember that Scribus written by Qt5? So maybe there is need: https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/fcitx5-frontend-qt5 |
|
|
Scribus 1.7.x requires minimum Qt 6.4.0 better a newer version. See here: https://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/1.7.0_Release (at bottom) |
|
|
Since then,maybe the AppImage needs: https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/fcitx5-frontend-qt6 |
|
|
As a next step, here are tickets for Krita, Inkscape, and FreeCAD: - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422465 - https://github.com/freecad/freecad/issues/24391 - https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/2218 I will check if they can be solved for our nightly Appimage by tweaking the Docker image. |
