Maw, would be great to have this updated before beta 1.  Perhaps stanislav could help with his new branding package foo.
Comment 2 JP Rosevear 2008-04-17 21:02:12 UTC
Pretty important to get this updated if it hasn't been.

- Updated metatheme-gilouche-0.4 to gtk2-theme-openSUSE-0.5 and
  opensuse-theme-metacity-gilouche-0.3 (bnc#369309).


Next time, please use gtk metatheme conforming tarballs, which allows to simply pick and install them by the theme selector:

- Level 1 directory of the tarball is the exact name of the theme.

- Level 2 directories are gtk-2.0 or metacity-1, AUTHORS and README shoud be inside to not being overwritten by AUTHORS file from another sub-theme tarball.

- If the theme is a metatheme, it is preferred to package everything together, and index.theme is added. In this case, README and AUTHORS could be put one level upper, if it makes sense.

- ChangeLog is welcome.

- Name of the tarball should include name of the theme, type of the theme and version of the theme. Convention is not defined.

Thanks for the hints. Too bad we still need to rely on 'building' the icon theme using icon-naming-utils. Having a single metatheme containing metacity, gtk and icon theme would be easier to maintain and package...

Will look into releasing a metatheme of gtk and metacity Gilouche soonish.
