Is qgnomeplatform package installed?

[ByteEnable]

qgnomeplatform is not installed. I installed the package and the colors appear to match the theme.

I also installed qt5ct and set the colors there and then launched as follows:
wireshark --platformtheme qt5ct

Thanks for the quick response. Maybe this is a Fedora Spin packaging issue and I should follow up there?

No; it's that the Mint themes aren't really meant for Qt, it's more Gtk based.. While it could go to Fedora, it may impact other distros. Maybe flag it under mint-y-themes or mint-x-themes?

Glad you have this solved. As far as I can see this isn't really a Cinnamon issue.

Maybe flag it under mint-y-themes or mint-x-themes?

No reason for that. Those have nothing to do with qt theming.

Would also like to point out this isn't an issue in Mint by default.

Your claiming that Cinnamon is not a desktop environment but merely an application? Surely Cinnamon should be providing mechanisms that provide a consistent desktop interface across the application ecosystem?

@ByteEnable qgnomeplatform provides the qt5 integration for gtk theming.

Ah. Okay. Cinnamon is an application running under GNOME. Thanks for the clarification.

Weird. I don't seem to remember saying that. Some things are handled at a distro level and left for the distro maintainers to decide.
