@Andrea: this is the same issue i had contacted you for. :)
This variable ( GTK2_RC_FILES ) is exported by krdb for KDE to detect GTK+2 themes. So every KDE user should have it.
Alternatively, if this variable is not defined, QT looks for GConf. So GNOME users shouldnt have this problem.
The problem is only present if you dont have neither KDE or GConf. So its not an upstream problem.
But a decision should be made about weather to export this variable in some package, eg. GTK+2 (i dont know if its gonna cause any troubles) OR to not solve this at all and let users who are affected by it export the variable themselves. I think its also mentioned in the wiki.
Sorry for requesting closure as upstream, i just got bitten again by this and didnt remember the exact situation. I think that sums iit up decently.
