LXQT installation

I would like to know how to go about installing LXQT on Q4OS.
It will be on a fresh partition - it's mainly for testing and learning

In the repos I see some packages with version number '  3  ' ? Is that the new 0.13 release
I see some packages with 0.11   but nothing with 0.12
Slightly confusing

Of course, a link to somewhere in this forum is as good as a written explanation
and....no hurry 1

Thanks
Witloof

Re: LXQT installation

I'm using Centaurus at the moment but the desktops can be installed via the Desktop Profiler available via the Welcome Screen where you can select any of the alternative desktops to co-exist with Q4OS.
I will reboot into Scorpion to check it is also available there and post back shortly.

EDIT: Yes it is the same in Scorpion.

Re: LXQT installation

You should install Q4OS in the fresh new partition and then install LXQT via the Desktop Profiler as Day_trying said.

Re: LXQT installation

Thanks guys

I didn't realize it was in the Desktop profiler, despite the fact I just did a new install of Scorpion 2.5 rc1.
I guess it's the old sickness : too much in a hurry !
Thanks

btw: the rc1 looks OK to me 1
