Hi Lisandro, I think the consensus upstream was that using qt5ct to set themes was more flexible than simply hardcoding it to gtk2 (e.g. if someone wants to use adwaita-qt instead). Granted though, I haven't tested qt5ct outside Cinnamon.
I also haven't tested whether setting the override to 'gtk2' instead of 'gtk' would solve the problem, as I'd have to patch+build cinnamon-session again. Either way, this still requires qt-styleplugins to be a newer version; I previously pulled a 5.0.0+git20161024-0.1 version off Mentors that has the latest code, but it looks like that no longer exists. Another note: there seems to be some work on getting Cinnamon 3.2 packaged, though I'm not sure whether that's destined for stretch (3.2 includes the patch I mentioned).
