Bug Description
Configuration:
Default Xubuntu 11.10 64-bit desktop ISO image.
To reproduce:
1) Install clean Xubuntu 11.10 to HDD using defaults.
2) Make sure that GTK2 and GTK3 apps are using default theme in their UI.
3) Install some Qt-based program. For example, qutim. Any other Qt-based app which does not uses custom styles by default and relies on system defaults should do the trick as well.
4) Launch Qt-based program you've installed.
5) Make sure that Qt-based program ignores UI settings and uses some widgets set which looks different than default Xubuntu widgets.
Result:
All Qt based apps will look poorly in Xubuntu. They will not look like native apps in this system.
Expected:
Qt apps should obey system settings. At very least they should look properly with default theme.
Details:
Some details on this issue and one of possible workarounds has been described on http://
