Re: New cinnamon version and possible improve to salsa gits



I think the easiest fix for the theme thumbnails is just to use by default the "gnome" icon theme, Adwaita themes for everything else and for the desktop the "cinnamon" default theme.

Also, the "additional drivers" has no icon, but that may be an icon issue.

sunday I had tested the packages and prepared for the first upload on
experimental, today Christoph Martin finished reviewing and uploading
them to the debian repository, this will make easier/faster install and
test them for anyone want do it

about theme thumbnails are still needed and used in theme settings, some
are missed, and they should be added, but the ideal would be not to need
those but take them if they are already present in the installed themes
or generate them but from a very quick search I have not found and I
have not had time to look at in detail, if Joshua or someone else wants
to contribute improving the part or updating the current thumbnails is
welcome

any other advice or improvement is welcome
