[RESOLVED] KDE with qtcurve: style issue in skype & x86_64

beaux_monde · 2013-08-07 06:02:49

Hi, folks!
I installed 64 bit version of Arch. All is good but looks like styles definitions I made in KDE Settings stuff does not apply to skype which is installed as 32 bit app itself with some libraries from multilib. I use qtcurve in KDE and I installed lib32-qtcurve-qt4 from AUR too.
Do you have any ideas?

Make sure you also have skype set to use the gtk-style in it's options.

Looks like there is need to select qtcurve as a style in skype's options.

What package for integration did you installed? I installed kde-gtk-config but in option style of Skype I've only:

Windows
Motif
CDE
Plastique
GTK+
Cleanlook
Desktop settings

kde-gtk-config gives possibility only to change the look of GTK-based apps using KDE's "System Settings" stuff. To adding of qtcurve to list of accessable styles in a skype's options dialog you need to install lib32-qtcurve-qt from AUR, IMHO.

If I try to install lib32-qtcurve-qt4, gcc-libs-multilib conflicts with gcc-libs and yaourt ask to remove gcc-libs, but I'm not sure about it.

Yes, it is! This is multilib version of the gcc-libs (ie GNU version of the standard C libraries).

But I'm on a 64bit system, Do I need gcc-libs for x86_64, doesn't it? So I shouldn't remove gcc-libs!

Nobody tells you to remove gcc-lib. Furthermore you can not to remove it because this is probably the main libraries of the linux.

Instead if I try to install lib32-qtcurve-qt4, yaourt (pacman) says:

gcc-libs-multilib and gcc-libs are in conflict. Remove gcc-libs? [s/N]

Read this please.

All done, thanks!

Arch, x86-64. Installed lib32-qtcurve-qt4, but still can't choose qtcurve in Skype.

It's strange... There is all working for me.
Screenshot of styled with qtcurve skype

Perfect Gentleman · 2014-01-31 08:17:22

I'll try once more.

Perfect Gentleman · 2014-01-31 08:27:13

nope, it doesn't work, and can't choose qtcurve style in Skype.
Installed from official repo.

I don't choose qtcurve style in skype (see screenshot).

Perfect Gentleman · 2014-02-01 03:38:20

using 'Desktop Settings' doesn't work too, its style is far from qtcurve

beaux_monde · 2014-02-07 09:07:20

All of this is strange... After system upgrade my skype's behavior is like Perfect Gentleman described. qtcurve disappeared from options dialog. Downgrading of skype done nothing.
So thread is reopened...
:-)

It looks like this issue resolved by installing the qtcurve-git and lib32-qtcurve-git from AUR.
Need to say that I had to do some minor editions of the PKGBUILD files to build these packages.
