Description Andrew Sobala 2002-12-20 17:47:40 UTC
The install theme button in the theme manager doesn't do anything.
Comment 1 Alex Duggan 2002-12-20 18:03:12 UTC
are you using control-center-2.1.5?
Comment 2 Andrew Sobala 2002-12-20 19:00:54 UTC
Yes
Comment 3 Andrew Sobala 2002-12-20 19:02:55 UTC
By the way Alex, I am the QA maint for the control center and
generally not so bad at keeping track of bugs in this module :-) So
ones I file should be valid, or I'm not doing my job properly.
Comment 4 André Dahlqvist 2002-12-24 14:53:36 UTC
Seeing this as well with GNOME installed from GARNOME 0.19.5.

Comment 7 Mark Finlay 2002-12-30 14:10:24 UTC
The attached patch makes the Install button let you install any
type of theme that goes into ~/.themes - metathemes, gtk, metacity ...
