Use the correct system theme

snapcraft

Hi, I built a snap but it looks awfully out of place theming-wise. It doesn’t use neither yaru or adwaita despite the gnome extension being installed. Is there a variable that needs to be set for that ? The deb and the flatpak versions both use a gtk theme.

Thanks !

Here is the snapcraft.yaml :

I’m guessing it’s the plugs, have you tried adding the gtk-3-themes and icon-themes plugs?

icon-themes isn’t about GTK themes, but it might be necessary if your app uses user icons.

Sadly adding these plugs didn’t change anything.
