If you want Breeze to inherit missing icons from the Tango theme and the Tango theme to inherit missing Icons from the Breeze theme the cursortheme module from systemsettings will crash: gdb --args kcmshell5 cursortheme Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error. 0x00007ffff3a3e7a4 in __GI__IO_setb () from /lib64/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x00007ffff3a3e7a4 in __GI__IO_setb () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff3a30c96 in __GI__IO_file_doallocate () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #2 0x00007ffff3a3e845 in __GI__IO_doallocbuf () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #3 0x00007ffff3a3d9d4 in __GI__IO_file_underflow () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #4 0x00007ffff3a3e8ce in __GI__IO_default_uflow () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #5 0x00007ffff3a32704 in __GI__IO_getline_info () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #6 0x00007ffff3a3164f in fgets () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #7 0x00007fffe43853a8 in _XcursorThemeInherits () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 #8 0x00007fffe438581b in XcursorScanTheme () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 #9 0x00007fffe4385872 in XcursorScanTheme () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 #10 0x00007fffe4385872 in XcursorScanTheme () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 #11 0x00007fffe4385872 in XcursorScanTheme () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 #12 0x00007fffe4385872 in XcursorScanTheme () from /usr/lib64/libXcursor.so.1 The bt from gdb will give you more then 60.000 lines of output (this is where is stopped bt). In normal use the systemsettings/cursortheme window will not be loaded completely and after a few seconds the systemsettings window will disappear. Not sure if this is a KDE bug. At least you can not choose a cursortheme if you have themes that inherit each other. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have four themes in /usr/share/themes: Adwaita, Tango, breeze, oxygen 2. Change inherits to: Tango: breeze,gnome,hicolor breeze: gnome,Tango,hicolor oxygen: Adwaita,gnome,Tango,hicolor Actual Results: Open systemsettings, go to workspace theme, select cursor theme. After a few seconds the systemsettings window will simply disappear. If you remove breeze from the above example in the Tango theme "Inherits" field everything works fine. Packagers that want to change the defaults should take care about circular inherits or the cursortheme module from systemsettings will crash.
Small typo: It is /usr/share/icons ... not /usr/share/themes.
