The transmission package (the transmission:gui output specifically) has
transmission-gtk, but I personally prefer transmission-qt. By including
qtbase, qttools, and qtsvg, transmission-qt will also be built.
I've made a simple package that inherits from transmission to do this:
(define-public tranmission-qt
(package
(inherit transmission)
(name "transmission-qt")
(inputs (modify-inputs (package-inputs transmission)
(append qtbase qttools qtsvg)))))
This works, except that transmission-qt.desktop is moved to the gui
output due to the inherited 'move-gui phase. I could figure out how to
remove that phase to fix that, of course.
But I'd prefer if transmission-qt were an option for the transmission
package directly, either under a new :qt output, or to have both
transmission-gtk and transmission-qt under the :gui output. Or just a
separate package, transmission-qt.
Any thoughts on that?
