Install Soft Gray For Single User
To install for ‘single user’ only, move the folder/s you want to install into ~/.local/share/icons. you may issue the following in Terminal to do so:
mv /PATH/TO/Soft-gray ~/.local/share/icons/
mv /PATH/TO/Soft-gray-Dark ~/.local/share/icons/
Install Soft Gray For All Users
The installation process for ‘all users’ is pretty similar to ‘single user’, only, the path is different and you’ll need to have root permissions at hand.
mv /PATH/TO/Soft-gray ~/usr/share/icons/
mv /PATH/TO/Soft-gray-Dark ~/usr/share/icons/
That’s it! To start using the icon theme open up “System Settings” from Plasma’s “Application Launcher” menu -> Go inside “Icons” and select the name of the icon pack you wish to use -> click “Apply” to start using it.
