Are Qt Quick Controls available on Ubuntu 13.10?
Qt Quick Controls are available since Qt 5.1 and the Qt 5 version in Ubuntu repositories seems to be Qt 5.0.2. Consequently you cannot use Qt Quick Controls with the current version of Qt5 in Ubuntu repositories.
If you want to use them, you have got 3 options:
- Using official Qt Project packages for Linux. You can download them here.
- Waiting a version of Ubuntu whose Qt5 version would be at least Qt 5.1. Trusty Tahr will likely have Qt 5.1 or Qt 5.2 in its repositories.
- If you are developing something for Ubuntu, you can use the components which are in the Ubuntu SDK.
Ubuntu.Components
(it is their name) are not the real Qt Quick Controls but they are very similar and if you know howUbuntu.Components
work, you will know how Qt Quick Controls work. For further informations, have a look at the corresponding page on Ubuntu Developer.
