Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kcm-gtk
I'm running Kubuntu 9.10 alpha 3 with package kcm-gtk-0.5.2-0ubuntu1
installed. Application such as Synaptic, running as sudo, will not use
GTK+ themes specifies by kcm-gtk (listed as GTK+ Appearance under
Kubuntu System Settings). It will use the specified theme just fine when
running as a normal user. It seems like the config file .gtkrc-2.0-kde4
in the user's home directory works fine, but the same file in the root
directory doesn't do anything. I found that creating a sym link, in the
root directory, called .gtkrc-2.0 pointing to .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 in the
same directory, solved this problem. The question is, why this happens
to apps running as sudo/root but not to normal user?
