Kopete appears to be ignoring the setting in the main KDE control panel with regards to style. I think it may be reading the wrong KDE folder. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start Kopete and take note of style 2.Change style in control center 3.Note all apps apart from Kopete change 4.Restart session, note kopete still does not change Actual Results: Kopete is still displaying Keramic while all other apps are now showing plastik Expected Results: Kopete should now be using the plastik style Kopete 0.8.0 KDE 3.2.0 QT 3.2.3-r1 I contacted the Kopete developers and they suggest that Kopete is reading it's config from the wrong folder.
maybe you mixed kopete from kde 3.1 and kde 3.2? or kdenetwork (which includes kopete) with net-im/kopete? this ug report is old and sounds invalid, but if I'm wrong, reopen please.
