Yast2 not affected by desktop theme
Last modified: 2018-04-13 15:02:47 UTC
Despite the KDE theme or Gnome theme you use, Yast2 icons and theme are the same. Yast2 looks do not fit anywhere within the distribution, I've noticed this since opensuse 13.1, 13.2 and now opensuse leap 42.1
I agree although I assume it would take a bit of effort to make all the necessary icons and see that the ui itself can handle those kinds of changes.
I find that if you remove the "yast2-qt-branding-openSUSE" package and then set a theme for the root user via systemsettings, YaST will use this theme. I use this to make it look like it matches my users theme. As long as that branding package is installed, YaST will use its theme and not the root users.

Isn't there a way for the opensuse team to link the yast icons and plasma theme to the user theme, and the same on the gnome desktop? Breeze has a large amount of icons, I'm sure there is no need to create icons for yast, just link to the existent ones. also, that just means that I have to use system config while on root and the settings will apply or do I really have to remove that package?

I am not sure why YaST has a branding package. IMO it should use the system theme for whatever user it is run as from default. Or there could be a yast module that lets you set the theme? That would be a possible compromise so its still easy to change the theme to the system one.
This is automated batch bugzilla cleanup. The openSUSE 42.1 changed to end-of-life (EOL [1]) status. As such it is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of openSUSE, or you can still observe it under openSUSE Leap 15.0, please feel free to reopen this bug against that version (see the "Version" component in the bug fields), or alternatively open a new ticket. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed during the lifetime of the release. [1] https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime
