  • [gentoo-user] nextcloud or owncloud and qt5 or rclone

    From hitachi303@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 26 22:20:01 2023
    Hi,

    so until now I am running my box without qt5. Compiling takes so long.

    But I am missing a client for owncloud or nextcloud. So I see
    nextcloud-cliend does not run without qt5. It does not need webengine
    but still. So I see as alternativ there is rclone. From the size of the download it seems to be even bigger.

    Does anyone have experience with rclone? Or is there a third
    alternative? (except the using the web interface with firefox or
    anything like this.)

    Regards

    hitachi303

    The download size isn't really relevant, it's the amount of dependencies. rclone uses Go AFAIR, so that's a lot less to build than Qt5.

    I use it regularly, although not with NextCloud (I use the Qt client for
    that as I run KDE). It's basically rsync for cloud providers and should
    work well with NextCloud, although you won't get the automatic syncing of changes that you get with the client

    If it isn't broken, I can fix it.
