scrollbar fix in kde does not work properly

[karl]

Binary package hint: kcontrol

The Scrollbar fix for Firefox in Systemsettings->Appearence->GTK Styles&Fonts->[~] is not working correctly. Although the Scrollbar is now displayed correctly when scrolling with the mousewheel or by dragging the slider the left vertical line/border of the slider stays put in place (and the slider has no left border while moved). When dragging, that line is redrawn after releasing the mousebutton, when scrolling by mousewheel the slider has no left border untill the pointer is moved into the area of the slider.

I hope I could express the circumstance as clearly as necessary

kind regards

Sadly, gtk-qt-engine is a quite broken piece of software and has been removed from distribution. (See bug 404930)
Unfortunately this means that the large number of bugs will not be seeing fixes. :(

For now, the best integration option for KDE is the QtCurve style, (gtk2-engines-qtcurve) which offers a theme quite similar to the default Oxygen theme. The configuration module for gtk-qt-engine has been salvaged and is now living in the kcm-gtk package, which will be available and installed by default in Kubuntu 9.10.

Thanks for understanding. This package tried its best, but in the end did not live up to the standards required by anybody who doesn't like looking at a broken Oxygen imitation.
