Text Editor

- needed also for source code

  • JuffEd, already packaged
    • cursor behaviour is somehow strange in kvm
  • Enki (PyQt4) - Review
    • based on component Qutepart (PyQt4) - Review

Partitioning

  • QtParted
    • not feature complete currently
    • inactive since 2012
  • try the fork QParted (notice the one missing character in different naming)
Is a partition editor really a basic part of a graphical desktop environment? Besides the need to work with partitions during the installation, 
it is actually not needed. I would discourage everybody to change partitions while the system is running, and this wouldn't work anyway on all partitions.
The better way is to boot a live medium. Then it doesn't matter whether a Qt or GTK or whatever based partition editor is used.

Web Browser (oh well!)

  • 1. Qupzilla needs update
  • 2. Dillo - but it's based on FLTK what we want?
  • 3. Konqueror - conflicts with PCManFM-Qt as the (default) file manager, see below [1]
  • 4. Firefox - too much overload propably…
  • 5. Arora (Google) - dead upstream
  • 5a. Rekonq - maintainer of Arora suggests as a comparable replacement.

Mail client

  • Honestly, no real idea yet, suggestions are welcome
  • Trojita ??

Multimedia player

  • QMMS
    • seems to be feature complete and packaged actively

File Browser (optional alternative to PCManFM)

  • Double Commander (Qt) - Review
  • Konqueror

Development

  • QGit

Accessories

  • KCalc, since version 15 with Qt5 support (as in Fedora 22)

Misc. configuration

  • LightDM greeter: Replace lightdm-gtk with lightdm-razorqt
  • Light-Locker: Review
    • with Light-Locker-Settings: Review
