[gentoo-user] KDE-4.2 missing Oxygen

[gentoo-user] KDE-4.2 missing Oxygen

[Naga]

Hi,

I was wondering if I'm the only one who is missing the "Oxygen" desktop theme 
when installing KDE-4.2 from the kde-testing overlay?

/Regards

It's there when you install 4.2 from the main portage tree.

My bad, I did install from portage, kde-testing was before.

Do you use "kdeprefix"?

I've installed 4.2 from both kde-testing and portage. Oxygen theme is 
definitely there. I can think of two things to look for:

How did you install 4.2? emerge @kde-4.2? some other way?

Did you rebuild Qt packages after installing KDE4? That is doing to eat your 
kittens, themes and other stuff

Oxygen is in the package kde-base/kdebase-desktoptheme.

From kde-testing "emerge @kde-4.2" from portage "emerge kde-meta".

I've reinstalled KDE-4.2 from portage at least 3 times, and in between 
compiling it from svn. The svn copy always works ok, the portage one is always 
missing Oxygen. 

Guess I'll stick to svn...

Thanks all for trying to help.

Do you have kde-base/kdebase-desktoptheme installed?  That's Oxygen.

Yes, that only pulls in some files under .../default/... (instead of 
.../oxygen/...) no mention about Oxygen.

That is correct.  The default *is* Oxygen and it's installed in 
"share/apps/desktoptheme/default".

The package itself says (try "eix kdebase-dektoptheme"):

   Description:         oxygen desktoptheme from kdebase

It's the default style in KDE 4 without you having to enable it.  So I 
guess if it still doesn't work and doesn't get listed in System 
Settings->Appearance->Style, something is messed up.  I would go over 
the packages one by one and see if I have some left-overs from some overlay.
