For Ubuntu users, this plugin can be installed from the PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xuzhen666/dockbarx
sudo apt update
sudo apt install dockbarx-lxqt-plugin
- Qt5 (>= 5.6.0), with its X11 extras
- LXQt panel
- CMake (>= 3.7.0)
- make
- C++ compiler
For Debian/Ubuntu users, these dependencies can be installed using the following command
sudo apt install qtbase5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev lxqt-panel cmake make g++
git clone https://github.com/xuzhen/dockbarx-lxqt-plugin.git
cd dockbarx-lxqt-plugin
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
The LXQt panel will probably not detect the plugin unless you install it in the /usr prefix, so instead do the configuration step with
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..
