[Bug 1695618] Re: Include qt5-style-plugins into the default installation, otherwise Qt5 apps don’t pick up the GTK+ style

 

We cannot do this for two reasons:

1) QGtkStyle is abandoned and unsupported upstream.
2) The goal is to remove GTK+ 2 from the default installation (and later from Ubuntu archive).

** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix

Title:
  Include qt5-style-plugins into the default installation, otherwise Qt5
  apps don’t pick up the GTK+ style

Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In Artful and Bionic, Qt5 applications look alien because they don’t follow the GTK+ style.
  For Qt5 applications to pick up the GTK+ style, qt5-style-plugins must be included into the default installation and “export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2” must be provided.

  Original bug description:
  Since I upgraded to Qt 5.7.1, Qt5 apps stopped picking up the Ubuntu (GTK+, I presume) theme, and look very Windowsy. I have qt5-gtk-platformtheme installed, and I tried forcing it by setting QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME, but to no avail.
