[Qt-creator] QtCreator 4.0.2. does not use my Ubuntu theme.

[Jochen Becher]

I found the gtk2 style plugin source on code.qt.io. But I didn't found
any style for gtk3. What do you mean with "replaced with gtk3 in 5.7"?

I also see that the download of style plugins haven't been updated for
a long time. Isn't that part of the official Qt community version? I am
quite sure that it was in the past.

I also found a discussion of Arch users from yesterday. They solved
this problem by using the gtk2 plugin but some got crashes due to
configuration problems (seems to be related to gconf but some said it
is a problem that qtbase5 is compiled against gtk3).

Regards, Jochen
