Package: kthememgr
Version: 1.1.1

If you are in the habit of "trying" different themes (for example just
to see what they look like) it is sometimes possible to get into a
"stuck" state where resources from several themes are all used
together.

There seems to be no way to "back" out of all themes and get the
default desktop back.

- Open up the Control Centre
- Choose themes.  Try a few and then apply or OK them
- Eventually the resources for the window controls (i.e. Exit
minimize) will be "stuck" as will the K start button.  For example I
had a "Mac OS" K button with "Rackmount" window buttons.
- Selecting default brought back _some_ of the resources but not the
sticky ones like the windows controls the K button and the file
manager icons.

This _seemed_ to happen after importing a them and trying it.

The only solution was to go into all the various .kde/... directories
and removing the button and icon resources.  This cured the problem -- I
didn't even have to edit and *rc files...
