Public bug reported: I am using the kubuntu next repository on kubuntu 14.10 - with the latest release of plasma 5.1. I have a bizarre issue that the kf5 applications like system-settings seem to be using the gtk2 theme set using the kde-gtk-config tool. Kde4 applications and qt4 applications correctly use the application style set.
E,g, i set application style to breeze, gtk2 theme to qtcurve and gtk3 to adwaita - and i can see that systemsettings5 is using qtcurve. while konversation (kde 4) and cadence (qt4) is using breeze (qt4config shows that theme is set to desktop default). When i change the gtk2 theme to say oxygen-gtk and restart system- settings it changes themes. Changing the theme in kde application style doesn't have any effect on system settings - also i that kde 4 applications don't change themes on the fly - they need to be restarted which is different behaviour to what i had seen in the early betas of plasma next Please let me know how i can debug this issue further?
