I just tried to make it with QDBus. I queried all dbus methods, but there wasn’t any for wallpaper.

Are you talking about X11 way or about gconf?

Gconf is obsolete, but it is possible to make it with GLib.
I can rewrite this https://github.com/GNOME/glib/blob/master/gio/gsettings-tool.c <https://github.com/GNOME/glib/blob/master/gio/gsettings-tool.c> with 
«set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri file:///path/to/file.jpg» as args for example.

At the same time, I think, it is possible to change background with X11 everywhere. But it can work with X11 Pixmap only.

Which way is better?

Sincerely,
Igor Antropov
