Lubuntu 18.10 - screenfetch wrongly says LXDE (not LXQt)

[Chris Guiver]

Lubuntu 18.10 comes with neofetch, but I wanted the output of it for pasting on a bug-report without ascii art, didn't easily see it in `man` [page] so I just installed screenfetch. Noted it states I'm using LXDE

Really petty I know, but reviewers/bloggers may...

I suspect issue is ...

With functioning fixes in upstream master, this assumedly will be fixed in the next version, i.e. >3.9.0.

[Chris Guiver (guiverc)]

@wxl I upgraded my debian-testing box last night (#lubuntu-dev) so it obtained the 3.9.0-1, copied to code to a NFS server and ran on my primary [Lubuntu] 20.04 box; it reports LXDE :(
