Description of problem: In order to get root-launched GTK apps (e.g., system-config-*) to use the same fonts as ones launched by a regular user, I ran kcontrol as root and enabled gtk-qt-engine. This caused two visible problems: - Many icons are now missing in system-config-* (see attached screenshots) - rhgb uses a light-grey background instead of the intended blue If I move /root/.gtkrc-2.0 out of the way, both of these problems go away, but of course the fonts in gtk apps are back to their unwanted defaults again. I'll attach /root/.gtkrc-2.0 to this mail, but it seems fairly default. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk-qt-engine-0.60-8.fc5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure gtk-qt-engine as root Actual results: - Icons are gone in system-config-* - rhgb uses grey background Expected results: - Proper icons - blue background

Looks like a dup of bug #163110 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 163110 ***
Reopening, I'm convinced this ins't necessarily the same as the (generally) ooo-specific issues outlined in bug #163110.
I've been able to duplicate the problem, but only when using BlueCurve icon theme. When/if I change to crystalsvg, things (seem to) work ok.
Can you confirm for which icon themes you see the problem? In particular, can you make any non-Bluecurve theme exhibit the bad behavior?
Another report confirms my suspicion that Bluecurve doesn't (fully?) follow the fdo icon spec (see bug #195221#c14), so it's less than likely we'll see any fix for this on the gtk-qt-engine side of things.
