           Summary: x11-themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme incompatible with
                    SDDM 0.21.0 (Qt6 greeter)
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---

Hello,

The port x11-themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme appears to be incompatible with
the current version of SDDM (0.21.0.36_2).

1. Incorrect greeter requirement

The theme currently requires:

/usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter

However, recent SDDM versions (including 0.21.0.36_2) use:

/usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter-qt6

As a result, SDDM reports:

The theme at "/usr/local/share/sddm/themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme"
requires missing "/usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter". Using fallback theme.

(WW) DAEMON: The theme at
"/usr/local/share/sddm/themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme" requires missing
"/usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter" . Using fallback theme.

Even if I temporarily work around this with:

ln -s /usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter-qt6 /usr/local/bin/sddm-greeter

the theme still fails to load.

2. QML error with Qt6 greeter

When forcing it to use sddm-greeter-qt6, the greeter reports:


The current theme cannot be loaded due to the errors below,
please select another theme.

file:///usr/local/share/sddm/themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme/Main.qml:49:24:
Invalid property assignment: "name" is a read-only property

This suggests the theme’s QML is not compatible with the Qt6-based greeter and
likely needs to be updated for Qt6.

3. Maintainer status

According to FreshPorts:
https://www.freshports.org/x11-themes/sddm-freebsd-black-theme/

There is currently no maintainer assigned for this port.

If needed, I am willing to take over maintenance of this port and update it to
properly support SDDM with Qt6.

Please let me know the correct procedure for becoming the maintainer.

Thank you.
