Firefox is using GTK theme on KDE

Support

Hello,

Requirements:

I have Searched the forum for my issue and found nothing related or helpful
I have checked the Resources category (Resources Index)
I have reviewed the Wiki for relevant information
I have read the the Release Notes and Errata

OpenMandriva Lx version:

ROME slim ryzen

Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…):

KDE Plasma 6

Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):

It’s only happening in the minimal ISO. My Firefox is looking in GTK (GNOMEish) theme. How can I convert it to Qt theme? With packages or environment variables etc.? Thanks.

Edit: Not only in Firefox.
Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):

I can provide if needed.

Do an internet search of ‘Qt version of firefox’ and start reading, Firefox uses what Firefox uses that is not under the control of Linux distros.

I’ve already read and didn’t find anything helpful. In full ISO It looks normal. It’s related with minimal ISO and I am asking how can I fix that.

The packages on the slim iso are identical to those on the full iso. The only difference is that the slim iso has fewer packages, especially KDE packages. All OMLx packages come from the same repositories. So maybe if you are using slim there is some KDE package you would want to install.

As far as I know there is not any Qt version of Firefox. Firefox for Linux mostly uses there own toolkit XUL and uses GTK for a few things like the window. I would think if one did an internet search of this one would come up with this and this.

Okay I found the solution.

Yeah I thinked this but the package looks like for Plasma 5.

my fault, if you use rome then package is called:
plasma6-breeze-gtk

for cooker we rename it to breeze-gtk once again (because plasma5 version was dropped in cooker).

Sadly didn’t worked. The thing I posted above is not a full solution too. It does not apply to other apps, components of firefox and takes too much space on the screen.

Apologies for my earlier posts, I missed that this is about the theme not the app itself. My mistake.

I’m not currently on OpenMandriva but if someone experiences the same issue installing breeze-gtk kde-gtk-config xdg-desktop-portal-gtk and xsettingsd packages can help from my Arch experience. I examined both of the full and slim iso build logs. Some packages maybe be unneeded, diffrent named like plasma6 on the start but I think it will work.
