Hello,

I set my system to the Bluecurve cursor scheme in KDE 4 System
Settings, I also have /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme pointing to
it. However, Qt 5 apps completely ignore all my efforts to make my
system look consistently and instead use a custom theme — for example,
here’s the “wait” cursor (it’s not even KDE-Classic, the watch is
white instead of black).

How can I get fix this?

I had similar issues. What I ended up doing was putting everything under ~/.icons:

    .icons/
        default/
            cursors -> ../mytheme/cursors
            index.theme
        mytheme/
            cursors
            index.theme

Where default/index.theme contains:

    [Icon Theme]
    Inherits=MyThemeName

I also had to create quite few symlinks in mytheme/cursors for the cursor-names which were missing (there are lots of aliases). The relevant cursor-names can be found by looking at some of the other cursor themes in /usr/share/icons.
