What happens there is a QSettings class is created, the current config
resource dirs are added to its search path. Then, QSettings is told
to get the config entry "/kthemestyle/themes" which it is supposed to
get from a file kthemestylerc in its search path. I can't see why
that fails for you. I'd like to debug this, but I can't since I don't
get the error.

Right. It means you have installed a local version of KDE, right ?
Do you happen to have set KDEDIRS to something or have done other
uncommon things ? Can you check if the problem goes away if you
remove those settings ?
