Why can't you install a KDE app without installing the entire DE?
Want to use krita instead of gimp
Logan Walker
Carson Smith
krita depends on qt5, so it probably fetches some qt5 libs.
Easton Lee
It's a demanding girl, but it does worth it.
That fluffy tail.
Liam Torres
David Clark
I don't care that much about package count but why do they have to be such assholes and make the DE a dependency? You can install software from other DEs just fine but anything KDE will pull in the entire DE as a dependency
Carson Turner
Use mypaint for art.
Gimp is fine for pure editing.
James Fisher
Are you sure it's pulling in KDE and not just Qt?
That seems like your package maintainer messed up.
Xavier Miller
not op, but it does want a bunch of kde-specific things
i already have qt5 installed for other things, and it still wants 250M of stuff (krita itself is 130M)
Jacob Flores
critically-- it depends on kio (which is what pulls in most of the kde-specifics)
not sure yet if krita can be built without kio
Jose Cox
Use the AppImage
Blake Gonzalez
Why do you care? Is 90 MB of download too much for you?
Jaxson Johnson
Arch users are autistic. Who cares you fucking loser. Use the AppImage if you care that much. Neck yourself stupid faggot frogposter
Ethan Murphy
>336mb installed
Wow, it's fucking nothing.
Ethan Harris
y im sure, qt is just qt5-base and maybe a few other like qt5-webengine and such
Isaiah Carter
Why aren't you using KDE in the first place?
Jaxson White
It's a fair trade for the amount of productivity you get from Krita. You can do a lot with it. I'm genuinely surprised this is open source, I would put it on par with CSP or Paint Tool Sai.
Juan Evans
Should the entire OS be compiled into a single binary? No. Neither is anything KDE.
Chase Adams
csp>krita>sai in pure performance
Daniel Richardson
Use LXQt as DE (aka Openbox + Qt)
It's not so minimalist as i3 or pure Openbox
But at least it's quite minimalist compared to Xfce
Brandon Butler
Why not pinta?
Christopher Jackson
What about snap?
Cooper Thomas
It's called "unix-way" that's why old crowd of Windows users hate it.
Owen Nguyen
Appimage/snap/flatpak
Installing software from repositories is outdated and dead.
Jason Rodriguez
>depends on literally pajeet tier Linux port of .NET
Connor Watson
Why don't you use KDE?
