Comment 4 for bug 1869007

Dear Ubuntu Teams,

I am both the member of UbuntuKylin and the author of qt5-ukui-platformtheme. I have a plea that please let the qt5-ukui-paltformtheme packaged into focal.

Even if I know for sure that this might cause a lot of troubles for packing a newly package after Featrue Freeze, there are more sufficient and urgent reasons that prompted me to initiate this request again.

Firstly, qt5-ukui-paltformtheme is not a single application but a basic environment of UKUI. It
almost effects all qt's applications in UKUI Desktop Environment. Insteadly if there is no a platformtheme, some qt's application such as Peony (UKUI's File Manager) will not work in correct because there is not a "driver" of theme to indicate them how to display themselves.

Secondly, as a lts release of UbuntuKylin, I do not hope that users getting an iso and start an experience many with obvious bugs. In fact the most of them is leaded by lacking of this package. I have try my best to consider how to fix these bugs in UKUI Desktop Environment but I still not find a way to resolve them, except letting qt5-ukui-platformtheme intergated into UKUI.

If someone try a daily build iso of UbuntuKylin, he or she will find that how serious the problem it is. For now we have provided a ppa[0] for resolving those bugs. qt5-ukui-platformtheme is also can be installed with the ppa. If we do nothing now, these bugs might still exist and difficult to maintian because of the lack of basic environment.

I must appreciate everyone here for the greate contributions. As an author of open source projects, I can only do very limited things for this case. So I hope that you consider my request again, and I will do my best to provide some strength.

Sincerely,
Yue Lan
