If you do go this route at some point, remember the last step, which is
essential:
sudo sh -c "echo 'export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct' >> /etc/environment"
Then, if memory serves, reboot.
Surely you shouldn't be modifying /etc/environment for your own
preferences.
Looking at /etc/trinity/tdm/Xsession (and assuming that you use tdm, other
display managers will be similar), I see
case $SHELL in
*/bash)
[ -z "$BASH" ] && exec $SHELL $0 "$@"
set +o posix
[ -f /etc/profile ] && . /etc/profile
if [ -f $HOME/.bash_profile ]; then
. $HOME/.bash_profile
elif [ -f $HOME/.bash_login ]; then
. $HOME/.bash_login
elif [ -f $HOME/.profile ]; then
. $HOME/.profile
fi
;;
(and similar code for other shells), so shouldn't you just put your own
personal configs in, whichever of .bash_profile, .bash_login and .profile
you have?
To my memory, /etc/environment is sourced only by PAM. Other global
system-wide variables should be set elsewhere, such as /etc/bashrc,
/etc/profile.d, etc.
The qt5ct package is needed only in environments where no support is
provided for qt5 themes and styles, such as window managers and TDE.
Since the qt5ct package is needed in TDE, an appropriate place to source
'export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct' is $TDEHOME/env/qt5ct.sh. The 'sh'
extension is required -- look in $TDEDIR/bin/starttde for how scripts in
the env directory are sourced.
I hope that helps. :)
