What packages do I need to configure KDE apps' appearance while running XFCE?


The subject of this thread pretty much says it all.

I'm running Debian Testing with XFCE and I want to configure the looks of the KDE applications I run under XFCE, specially the text-font settings. What package names do I need to look for to get the appropriate configuration tool?

Thanks in advance

ANY kde related setting, like themes, font rendering, phonon backend, notifications is changed via systemsettings, regardless of what desktop enviroment you are on

To add to that; under Xfce this would be the Settings Manager and if that isn't enough the Settings Editor if you are looking for gui tools.

Thanks a lot, jim_p! That made the "trick"!

Thank you for your reply as well, widget. Not really what I was looking for, but still thanks!
