Because of a bug preventing proper propagation of environment variables to apps launched through Kickoff/KRunner (KRun?) via klauncher(??) this is hardly noticeable but when you e.g. open Gimp or Inkscape through "Open With" in Dolphin or manually using
```
GTK2_RC_FILES=/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0:$HOME/.config/gtkrc-2.0 gimp
```
I didn't fully understand where it gets the tooltip base vs background from, so here are the compared values:
Incorrect colors applied on startup by kcminit (note the light `bg`):
```
style "ToolTip"
{
bg[NORMAL] = { 0.937, 0.937, 0.937 }
base[NORMAL] = { 1.000, 1.000, 1.000 }
text[NORMAL] = { 0.000, 0.000, 0.000 }
fg[NORMAL] = { 0.000, 0.000, 0.000 }
}
```
Without this patch colors applied correctly when hitting Apply in the Color KCM:
```
style "ToolTip"
{
bg[NORMAL] = { 0.192, 0.212, 0.231 }
base[NORMAL] = { 0.137, 0.149, 0.161 }
text[NORMAL] = { 0.937, 0.941, 0.945 }
fg[NORMAL] = { 0.937, 0.941, 0.945 }
}
```
Colors applied consistently with this patch, notice how `base` is now same as `bg` and different from the previous correct case:
```
style "ToolTip"
{
bg[NORMAL] = { 0.192, 0.212, 0.231 }
base[NORMAL] = { 0.192, 0.212, 0.231 }
text[NORMAL] = { 0.937, 0.941, 0.945 }
fg[NORMAL] = { 0.937, 0.941, 0.945 }
}
```
~~However, it now appears as though applying the colorscheme through the KCM is broken now :(~~ Nevermind, I forgot to rebuild the colors kcm as I thought krdb was a library but in fact it's just compiled into all these KCMs
