I agree this issue is really annoying. But I've noticed that if I run an application from xterm using "sudo application" command line, I get that unthemed gtk controls. So it's not a gksu problem. It's a common issue related to using user themes by gtk.
I think that gtk should take into consideration not only user id that it's running under, but also a common context like who really owns the session and his themes/paths to themes. -- locally installed gtk themes not applied to admin apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/24280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
