Description Michael Schumacher 2017-07-11 09:24:41 UTC 
While having a look at bug 784587, I noticed many differences between the various gtkrc files.

Some of them seem to be unnecessary - do the style names really have to be different, for example?

I recall that the last attempt to make them more unified collided with the main theme author's workflow, but it would help a lot with debugging if the differences could be reduce to those required.

Anecdotally, in bug 778966, comment 4, we found out that the different themes we ship perform differently, with the default theme being particularly bad.  So, looks like the other themes are better behaved somehow.
Comment 2 Jehan 2017-07-15 11:10:32 UTC 
I am all for unification, as you know that I indeed tried to make it happen.
I believe our official themes should be as similar as possible.
