 Typically, some components of a large application might not be found at run time, so the application will fail to start properly or will have missing functionality. As a small example, the Palapeli jigsaw-puzzle game in the kdegames4 port has an option to create puzzles from the user's own pictures, but the option will not work until kbuildsycoca4 has run and recorded Palapeli's slicer modules in the KDE software cache.
 
+==== Install kde4-workspace and qtcurve ====
+
+As described in the [wiki:KDEProblems/KDETickets#MajorlayoutissuesonOSX "Major layout issues on OSX" section of the KDE problems wiki page] is is necessary to avoid the
+use of the default "Macintosh (Aqua)" theme for KDE:
+{{{
+sudo install kde4-workspace qtcurve
+kbuildsycoca4
+}}}
+and run the "systemsettings" application from OSX' Launchpad where you can configure QtCurve as your new KDE theme under
+{{{
+Common Appearance and Behavior/Application Appearance/Style/Applications/Widget style
+}}}
+and you're ready to go.
