Hi, I'm the current QtCurve maintainer and here is what I have figured out about the bug now.
Both of them are because the application is using the minimum size of the scrollbar as the size of the box and therefore for a narrow scrollbar which had a small minimum size the size of the box is also small. For choqok, it is currently workarounded in QtCurve by setting a lower limit of the minimum length but this should still be fixed in choqok since it WILL break even in oxygen if the user has a bigger font than the default one. For kontact, the same workaround fixes the problem for that user since he is also using a narrow sidebar which is thinner than the lower limit of scrollbar in QtCurve right now. However, for a wider sidebar (e.g. the default one with big icon and text) even more than half of the Qt default themes have the same problem. It makes no sence to rely on the scrollbar size in kontact since it is definitely using some other way to calculate the size and the problem should be fixed in kontact. More info can be found in the kde bug reports pointed out by the original reporter as well as the QtCurve bug report here[1]. The workaround can be found in that bug report or here[2]. This patch will be included in the coming QtCurve release (the should be one in at most 2 month, likely even earlier.) Please close this bug or assign it to Choqok and Kontact. Thanks.
