Hi,

at least one of the GTK programs, IIRC Pluma, doesn't use Papirus icons.
The icons used by Pluma are probably HighContrast icons. While I'm on
Arch Linux used to Xed [1], Pluma is installed on Arch, too. On Arch
Pluma does use the same icons as other apps (there it's Sardi-Mono-
Papirus-Colora-Havelock).

On Arch and Alpine I manually edit files, but also use helper apps.
Those apps are different:
     =20
      =E2=80=A2 rocketmouse@archlinux ~=20
      $ /bin/ls /mnt/m1.alpine/usr/bin/{obcon,lxappear}* /usr/bin/{obcon,lx=
appear}*
      /bin/ls: cannot access '/mnt/m1.alpine/usr/bin/lxappear*': No such fi=
le or directory
       /mnt/m1.alpine/usr/bin/obconf-qt   /usr/bin/lxappearance   /usr/bin/=
obconf
     =20
FWIW both Arch and Alpine are using plain openbox, no DE at all. On
Alpin I did neither manually edit Qt configs, nor did I run a helper
such as qt5ct.

On Arch Linux I'm running gtk3-nocsd,
https://github.com/ZaWertun/gtk3-nocsd .

[1] If I have some time, I might take a look at how to build packages
for Alpine. Among other I'm missing https://github.com/linuxmint/xed by
the Alpine repositories. It provides more or less the look and feel of
Pluma or the old (not the new) Gedit, but Xed is lightweight.
