I'm not sure it's worth to duplicate code just because of Qt/Gtk fight ;-)
My motivation is not Qt vs GTK, but Anaconda developer's attitude (see
bug #541055). In short, they say: "It's a KDE problem, fix it
yourself".
Expecially maintainance would be horror. But I talked to Anaconda
guys yesterday
and they have a plan to separate gui from Anaconda core as much as possible. And
That's good, but we need a solution for today, or at least for F15
release. IMVHO it's not acceptable that our spin can just be installed
in English language.
I think Kevin's idea (kdialog wraper for liveinst) is the best shot at
the moment.
I have a few ideas for "superior" Qt Anaconda replacing
both installer and
firstboot :) But you know - time is not on my side!
If you want to start a Qt-based Anaconda project, count me in. I'm not
an expert developer, but I've created some tiny PyQt apps in the past.
