Description Vlad Berditchevskiy 2004-11-15 23:36:46 UTC 
If a theme, which does not exist, is selected in the glines options, glines
refuses to start. It prints the following error message:

--------------------------------------
Five or More could not find image file:
/usr/share/pixmaps/glines/pulse.png

Please chech Five or More is installed correctly
                                  [OK]
--------------------------------------

A better solution is to use some default theme or to let the user to select
another theme.

This problem may arise after upgrading from Gnome 2.6 to 2.8 (some themes were
moved to another tarball, which is optional) or when transfering user's home
directory to another machine, which doesn't have the required theme.

Oh, this is a serious bug, especially since, as you noted, some themes may not
be installed any more.

I have fixed it in CVS for both HEAD and 2.8.
