Flatpak Theming / Fedora Kinoite (lemm.ee)

Hello all,

I have installed fedora kinoite and everything is working as expected, except theming.

I know this is a limitation due to sandboxing and that there is a way around it.

Now, all guides are either only for Gnome theming or 2-4 years old.

Is there a simplified way on how to make applications like Firefox and libreoffice use the standard breeze dark KDE theme?

I believe you just make sure the packages xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-kde, and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk are installed. Applications using qt5/6 or gtk3/4 should automatically pick up the new themes.

Additionally, add the following files via flatseal or flatpak override --global

  • xdg-config/gtk-4.0
  • xdg-config/gtk-3.0
  • xdg-run/gvfsd
  • ~/.themes
  • ~/.icons

Unfortunately flatpak search or install cannot find these.

They're not on flatpak. They would be done via rpm-ostree install

I see, thank you. I do not think I will use that option just for theming though xD

It might already be installed.

They are installed.

We are working on better documentation on Atomic Desktops.

rpm -qa | grep APPNAME

Is a good way to find installed RPMs.
