    qt5ct dependency problem

    I'm trying to install qt5tc on KDE Neon 5.13 to adjust the fonts and look of VLC and other QT applications but have run into a problem:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install qt5ct

    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:
    
    The following packages have unmet dependencies.
    qt5ct : Depends: qtbase-abi-5-9-5
    E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
    qtbase-abi-5-9-5 is not in the repo. Any ideas?

    qtbase-abi-5-9-5 is a virtual package provide by libqt5core5a from Qt 5.9.5

    The package depends on Qt 5.9.5 but Neon has 5.11.1, hence the package is not installable.

    qt5ct is not a KDE project so is not supported by Neon. Some things not supported by Neon may still install and work, but some may not. This falls in the latter case, as the qt5ct developers coded it in a way that makes it depend on the exact version of Qt it was compiled with.

      Understood. Font problem solved by removing fonts.conf. KDE font settings are now being used by VLC, QBittorent and Tagaini-Jisho! The latter application has its own font preferences.

        I suppose this is what one gets from wanting the latest and greatest KDE Plasma experience without treading in the unknown waters of Manjaro
