I've upgraded from ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04 wich changed KDE version from 4.8.2 to 4.13.3. Sadly 14.04 doesn't include the window theme (decorations) I've been using and I don't like any of the 4 themes included in the distro. The problem is that I don't remember the name of the theme I've been using in 12.04 and cannot find it in the backup - 4.13 stores theme name in ~/.kde/share/config/auroraerc but there is no such file in the pre-upgrade backup and grepping for words like theme didn't help either. Where can I find the name of the theme I've been using?

that file is just the config file for auroae, look in ~/.kde[4]/share/apps/aurorae/themes

I don't have ~/.kde/share/apps/aurorae either. Nor do I have PluginLib=kwin3_aurorae in kwinrc, my 4.8 style section looks like

[Style]
BorderSize=1
ButtonsOnLeft=MS
ButtonsOnRight=HIA__X
CustomButtonPositions=false
PluginLib=kwin3_tabstrip
ShowToolTips=false

and tabstribrc is

[General]
ShowIcon=true
TitleAlignment=Center

and that's all, and I am stupid - tabstrib is the name of the theme. Unfortunately the tabstrib theme available for the aurorae has hardcoded colors :(

Sad.

Yes, that's the one I was talking about - hardcoded ghastly blue.
