Best way to install qtcurve QT6 fork
Former Arch user here, wondering what the best way to install a custom fork of qtcurve would be. There's a build on the AUR from a month back but I tried installing that in the Arch container and it didn't seem to like that. cmake in general on my system seems broken, since the build fails outside of the Arch container as well. I tried compiling from the repo manually and cmake still gives me errors.

I'm no stranger to compiling repos I'm just not sure how things are setup on Bazzite
I got it to successfully compile inside the arch container, now I just need to install it to bazzite somehow 😛
Leaving a paper trail in case anyone decides to follow:
I installed all the dependencies listed by the qtcurve package in the AUR, then I installed kf5. Followed the build instructions and used the command
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DENABLE_QT5=ON \ -DENABLE_QT6=ONoh yeah, to get around the issue in the second image I uploaded, I had to do paru -S --overwrite \* cmake ...nothing broke yet so I'm assuming it's fine? I've concluded the best way to do this for now is to either create a custom copr repo or an rpm and layer it using rpm-ostree. I don't have any experience on the fedora side of things so that will have to wait until another day if anyone has any advice for input for this feel free to add
