Description Holger Bauer 2005-10-26 23:26:45 UTC
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu 5.10

Drag and drop an icon-theme archive to the theme-manager dialog. A progess
dialog appears telling the theme is installed to ~/.themes.
However the icon-theme is installed correctly, only the displayed path is wrong.
Comment 1 David Sedeño Fernández 2005-11-14 20:03:04 UTC
I think that you mean the dialog that appear in the transfer, isn't it?

This it's because the theme manager copy the theme to .themes and then detects
that it's an icon theme searching inside the tgz/bz2, then install it to .icon dir.

Comment 2 Thomas Wood 2006-01-03 23:17:10 UTC
The message is correct, as it does temporarily copy the archive to ~/.themes. 

However, the dialog probably does not need to display this information, so I would suggest actually removing that information entirely.

Confirming bug report. I'm currently working on an updated progress dialog.
Comment 4 Thomas Wood 2006-11-01 14:25:33 UTC
I've cleaned up the UI in the file transfer dialog. Closing this bug as it no longer displays this information.
