Bug Description

Binary package hint: ibus

What happened:
I am using ibus for Japanese input on Kubuntu 10.10. (I used uim before.) I have configured it via im-switch. However, even though I am using KDE, the GTK panel applet is used. This can be seen from two things:
1. the icons in the right-click menu are replaced with the generic "no icon" icon (see screenshot);
2. the Preferences menu item brings up the GTK dialog, which is ugly, since it is not even using the theme set up in System Settings.

When I first started the ibus daemon from the command line, (yet without im-switch,) both the QT and the GTK applet were started.

What should happen:
Under KDE, the QT applet should be started.

Kubunte version: 10.10
KDE version: 4.6.1
ibus version: 1.3.7-1ubuntu4

"sudo apt-get install gnome-icon-theme" might be a good workaround.

Related, perhaps, but the point is, I don't want to see the GTK/Gnome icons, I want to have the Qt GUI and icons under KDE.
