Description of problem: drak programs do not follow Plasma desktop font size

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Plasma desktop fonts size to 12
2. Start any drak program e.g. drakrpm
3. Used font size is still the default 10 *

* the exeption is MCC main window where the correct font size is used except in up pulldown menu and side menu where it is still with size 10

I agree this is somewhat confusing.

MCC is runs as root and use by default the Adwaita Theme and the DejaVu Sans 10pt police.
We can't support use of other police or size because it can cause Bugs.

Also, Plasma uses user's QT theme while MCC uses GTK3 theme from root user. Choosing theme in systemsettings5 as user can't overwrite the theme in root directory and it never should be.

So, for now until a better solution can be found, regarding the particular situation of this tool, asking some advice from Maintainer.

OK, if it is hardcoded in this way, the nothing to do...
For other programs (eg partitionmanager) it helps running "kdesu systemsettings5" and setting font size to the same as in user settings.
