Anyone who has written about music using MusicTeX knows that it has its quirks. There are some things that are better done with LilyPond, using Frescobaldi for editing—a project that has been revived but receives less attention in terms of its GNU/Linux build.

I’m sharing this Qt6 build of Frescobaldi version 4.0.7 for your consideration, which includes .deb packages for installation on Debian and compatible systems, as well as an AppImage for any GNU/Linux distribution.

Hi LaTeX community! 👋

I've created custom builds of **TeXstudio** with **Qt6** and **Poppler-Qt6** for modern Linux distributions, addressing the lack of official Qt6 builds for Linux.

## Why this project?

The official TeXstudio builds still primarily use Qt5 (which reached end-of-life in May 2025), and Linux users have been waiting for proper Qt6 support. These custom builds provide:

✅ **Qt6 framework** - Modern UI/UX with better performance

✅ **Poppler-Qt6 native PDF viewer** - Perfect SyncTeX support (click to jump between PDF and source)

✅ **Optimized packages** - Only ~19MB (66% smaller than standard builds)

✅ **GPG-signed packages** - Full security verification

✅ **Auto-updates** - Built-in update checker pointing to this repository

## 📦 Installation Options

### Option 1: APT Repository (Recommended for Debian/Ubuntu/Devuan)

**Stable branch** (production-ready):

```bash

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://mlmateos.github.io/texstudio-qt6-builds/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/texstudio.list

sudo apt update

sudo apt install texstudio

```

**Alpha branch** (latest development versions):

```bash

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://mlmateos.github.io/texstudio-qt6-builds/ alpha main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/texstudio.list

sudo apt update

sudo apt install texstudio

```

### Option 2: AppImage (Any Linux distribution)

Download from [Releases](https://github.com/mlmateos/texstudio-qt6-builds/releases) and run:

```bash

chmod +x texstudio-*.AppImage

./texstudio-*.AppImage

```

### Option 3: Direct .deb download

Grab the latest `.deb` package from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/mlmateos/texstudio-qt6-builds/releases)

## 🔧 Build from Source

Automated build scripts are available if you want to compile your own version:

```bash

git clone https://github.com/mlmateos/texstudio-qt6-builds.git

cd texstudio-qt6-builds/scripts

./build-texstudio-deb.sh --clean --poppler --sign

```

## 📋 Current Versions

- **Stable**: 4.9.5

- **Development**: 4.9.6-beta3

## 🔗 Links

- **GitHub Repository**: https://github.com/mlmateos/texstudio-qt6-builds

- **Releases**: https://github.com/mlmateos/texstudio-qt6-builds/releases

- **APT Repository**: https://mlmateos.github.io/texstudio-qt6-builds

## 💡 Features

- Syntax highlighting & auto-completion

- Integrated PDF viewer with native SyncTeX

- Spell checking (Hunspell)

- Live preview

- Custom credits & patched update URLs

- Preserved dictionaries: en_US, en_GB, es_ES, es_MX, fr_FR

## 🤝 Feedback Welcome!

This is an **unofficial build** (not endorsed by the official TeXstudio project). I'd love to hear your feedback, bug reports, or feature suggestions!

**Tested on**: Debian 12, Devuan 5, Ubuntu 22.04+

Happy TeXing! 🎓
