Re: Theme packages ?



Hi All,

	Ok, I built and uploaded the meta themes package, but the package was
	rejected. After speaking with James I learn't that you can
	actually do a:
	
	$> apt-get install gtk2-engines-*
	
	to install all available gtk2 themes.
	
	Since this feature is available in apt-get and also due to some other 
	issues (general meta package problems and testing) the admins
	decided not to let the package through to the archive.
	
	So instead, we all get to learn something new about apt-get :)
	
	Cheers,
	
	Marcus
