So I installed libbonoboui2-0 and GTK applications now use my QT4 style.
I found this and confirm that solved my problem.
I confirm, after many tries to set the gtk-qt engine correctly...

Jonathan, I still do not understand the change in the transition from
Hardy to Intrepid that caused gtk-qt-engine to only have a visible
effect when libbonobo (alongside all the gnome libraries) is installed.
In Hardy I could use my QT style for GTK applications without any gnome
dependencies. (I
Closing as Won't Fix. The GTK dependencies are deliberately removed so
we can ship this on the Kubuntu CDs without bringing in lots of GTK
libraries. Most popular GTK apps (e.g. firefox) will bring in libbonobo
on install. Unfortunately GTK does not itself ship with a nice theme so
we have to
The package doesn't work without those dependencies, so what's the point
in shipping it at all? It only offers an option in system settings which
won't do anything (and will therefore confuse users--I notice one
duplicate bug already).
Surely, if it doesn't fit on the CD, leave it off, remake the

commit to gtk-qt-engine, removing some dependencies from it.)

Confirmed with Intrepid as of today.
Additional Information that may be useful:
For me every GTK application reports

Hmmm, I tried that, but I didn't see any change. Perhaps I should have
restarted. This definitely worked before without installing a lot of
GNOME libraries, but I don't know what packages were installed. Maybe it
will work with just libbonoboui2-common--I'll give that a try.
** Changed in:
I already tried that, and found that the missing library is *not* part of the
-common package.

I can also confirm that it worked in Hardy without the GNOME dependencies,
Looking at the dependencies on the website, it seems that gtk-qt-engine
in Hardy didn't depend on libbonoboui2.0, but gtk-qt-engine-kde4 (which
is effectively what we have in Intrepid) did.
However, the clearest problem is that gtk-qt-engines in Intrepid has no
dependencies listed at all:
Good insight - it seems that we are close to a solution.
The only remaining question is: Should it really be required to install all
those gnome libraries just to make GTK applications be rendered QT4-like? This
does not make much sense to me... But this can only be answered by somebody who
That's actually a different complaint--this is about the engine itself,
not the settings.
