Hi,
I've built some Qt5 versions of Strawberry 23 here.
https://software.opensuse.org//download.html?project=home%3APeterBBB&package=strawberry

Should be able to set themes using qt5ct

Cheers,
Peter

See this in the Wiki:
Strawberry does not respect Qt style, KDE theme or icons on Linux.

Strawberry is built with Qt6, and needs qt6ct (Qt 6 Settings) installed in order to make changes to the theme (on Ubuntu based distros). The above distros ship with qt5ct (Qt 5 Settings), but that only works on Qt apps that were written with Qt5.

Qt6ct won't build on Ubuntu 22.04 because it lacks some dependencies, so we're out of luck for now. I think the next versions of Ubuntu (and Linux Mint) will have qt6ct in the repository.

I have set up a dedicated laptop just for music, with Linux Mint LMDE6 (based on Debian 12) which has a slightly newer package base, and does, indeed, include qt6ct. It worked well to achieve a dark mode, as well as certain fonts and icons that I desired.

I would love to be proved wrong about this, but I think we're just going to have to be patient -- as long as we are on the LTS versions of Ubuntu and Mint.

If anyone has had success compiling qt6ct on Ubuntu 22.04, please share how you did it!

Me too. And since a long time. Pretty frustrating. No dark theme, no Strawberry for me.

Linux Mint 21.3, Ubuntu 22.04 jammy.

I tried things from around the internet. Maybe to do with Qt version 6.2.4. Don't know how to set it up.
Flatpak and all have same problem.
