What packages do I need to install to compile Kubuntu themes??

What -dev packages do I need to compile Kubuntu themes like the default Oxygen? Dont want to compile Oxygen obivously but I might want to compile others from kde-look.org down the road...

Thanks in advance!

  • Not sure what you mean by this.

    I don't think you need to necessarily compile anything. I have found some resources which may give you an understanding:

    KDE Plasma Theme Tutorial

    Some tools:

    Quantumstyle

    deKorator

    Martin J Hooper : When I was running KDE3 I had a list of packages I installed to compile non packaged kwin themes. I am asking for the same thing so I can compile KDE4 Kwin themes - I think its Kwin I'm looking for...
    ImaginaryRobots : KDE4 works very differently under the hood than KDE3 - it sounds like you don't need to compile themes anymore, just edit SVGs (though I personally haven't tried it)
    Martin J Hooper : I used to use aptitude rather than apt-get and forgot that there was an apt-get build-dep command!
