Running LXQt (Lightweight Qt Desktop Environment) on Jolla?
 
Would it possible to run LXQt on Jolla, like we have LXDE on the N900 and N9?

Would be very nice to have a desktop environment on Sailfish OS, especially now that TOHKBD is just around the corner! :)

LXQt is written with Qt5 and from what I figured it out, it has wayland support too.

I think it builds using cmake rather than pro files.

"Qt5X11Extras" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it

first roadblock. this is building on a stock xubuntu system, i would attempt to build this on my Jolla but batterys dead and I cba moving.

The real issue is and someone correct me if am wrong, if its looking for something with X11 does that mean its not wayland?

Other developers are working on code cleanup and removing dependency on X11 so we can move to Wayland later
I thought that it should have been done already...?

Semms it (0.9 version) requires qt5.3
Not sure how that matters too much. But surely needs some adjustements

also attempting to compile directly on the device yoelds no results as there seems to be an issue with the cmake command and.paths
