I'm trying to build the kstars from source in ubuntu 14.10. Follow the instruction from topic : HOWTO: Building latest libindi & Ekos, I can build kstars and install it. But after run it , there is no any icon display on it. the stars can display well. I also try to install the Oxygen icon theme, but had no luck. Is there any other dep I have to install ?

BTW, I build it in an arm board and run it through VNC. the kstars from the apt-get cmd display ok.

Here is the terminal output:

Why compiling if there is PPA?

About the topic - you are not the first, somebody recently was doing the same thing

Update: Ok, you mentioned, my fault! :)

You built all the KDE Frameworks 5.3+ prerequisites yourself or use some PPA?

No, I just did what HOWTO: Building latest libindi & Ekos say, didn't build KDE Frameworks 5.3+ prerequisites, and I use ARM version of ubuntu, so no PPA used.

15.04 ARM version? because 14.10 need PPA for KDE 5 stuff.

At any rate, I just asked Launchpad to enable ARM builds for my PPA. I had it before but I asked for removal due to too many errors previously. Now that there is demand, I'll put it back again.

Oh, I use 14.10, maybe this is the reason why it didn't work well.

Looking forward to the ARM build for you PPA. May I ask if it include ARM build of kstars and libindi ?

yes all, but KStars will fail on ARM due to missing PPA. Kubuntu-ci is AFAIK not available for ARM. It should build fine on 15.04 whether x86 or ARM (I hope).

Hi, I tried ubuntu vivid and just install the deps to build kstars, same happen and no icon.
And after install the kubuntu-desktop, part of the icon show but most of it still can not display.
I'm not running the whole kubuntu-desktop but just run an openbox in vnc.

I just want to run kstars but not the whole kubuntu-desktop, is there any way to do that ?
because running the whole kubuntu-desktop is not an option for VNC.

Just some "slightly off-topic" thoughts, but I've a similar issue on gentoo. My kstars has largely no icons because I only installed the very necessary deps. I really DON'T want the whole kde enviroment because this increases my "size optimized" system with ~300MB of software that I would never use. Wasn't it one of the intention of the new kde5 to be more modular and independent among each other packages? But I have to admit I have no clue how kde5 internally works. Maybe I miss just one particular package but I guess equally to kde themes, icons will only work with a proper started plasma-kde-enviroment. (same applies to people who only want to use kde5-dolphin as a standalone application.
