Hello,

there is a chance that dispite your ~trunk installation, the plugins (either 
for the style or the decoration, can't remember) are still loaded from /usr.
This is a problem I have encountered in the past, when building oxygen from 
trunk, and I have zero cule on how to fix.

Now there is a shared lib that is used for oxygen, namely liboxygenstyle.so, 
and probably the right one is loaded (from ~/kde/lib/liboxygenstyle.
To make things complete, it turns out the lib from trunk is not compatible 
with the plugins from kde4.5. Which is why the style is not loaded. 

You would need either to copy your ~/kde oxygen plugins to /usr, 
or to copy your /usr/lib/liboxygenstyle to ~/kde, or simply to delete the 
~/kde/lib/liboxygenstyle.so

I think the problem in the first paragraph is not specific to oxygen, but also 
applies to other plugins, though I am not 100% sure (maybe its just the 
styles, as loaded by Qt). Should be fixed. Does anyone has any clue ?
