Hello !

Are you able to port this to GTK3 so GTK-KDE4 will help us unify Qt4 and GTK3 apps appearance.

Thank you very much !

I second this! Would be really really nice to see my current theme on all GTK apps! Compliance is almost there too...

could it be named as something more converntial, such as gtk-kde4-0.9.4.tar.gz,
instead of this weird gtk-kde4(src)0.9.4.tar.gz ?

That would make packager's work a bit easier.

Was working before, but now strangely after a power outage, it no longer works. I'm using KDE-4.6 so i'm guessing it might be related (still strange though that it was working but no more).

Hi, that's me again, with my beautyful english!

If i run a Program by script at autostart, or after some longer scripts, there is no gtk-Theme any more. If i restart them from the Menu, everything works again.

Have a nice Day!

Bye!

After adding oxygencursors (0.0.2010-05-10-kde4.4.3-1ubuntu1) maverick, i had to run "sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme" to change both Themes (for KDE and GTK). I had also reconfigure the Theme Settings for gtk, because my windows were without any (gtk)Theme after changing the Cursor-theme.

Hi!

Works fine on my Kubuntu 10.10 , 64 Bit ;)

I think also, it would be good to have a 64 Bit Version, if it's possible to you.
Anyway i compiled it, made checkinstall, everything (symlinks.sh too) works fine!
(No bug till now, i had a lot of Problems with the older Versions)


Thank you!

I'm not really sure, but check if you have g++, gcc, cmake installed.

Because I have no Fedora and even no experience in making *.rpm packages I can't help you anyhow
