Best of all, Sabayon 16.07 introduces the first edition built around the next-generation LXQt desktop environment, which pretty much looks like LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment), but it’s built around the latest Qt technologies. Some more good news for the Calamares fans, the Sabayon 16.07 LXQt flavor ships by default with the Calamares installer. However, please note that the LXQt edition has been marked as Alpha quality.
