Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

The HumanLogin theme is not set, only the background is (and it is not the image of the theme), this bug is caused by a typo in the gdm.postinst script: /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk-theme instead of /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme. Also /apps/metacity/general/theme should be set to HumanLogin. The attached debdiff fixes this bug.

Thank you for your bug the typo has already been fixed in bzr and uploaded to karmic, the other change was not required by the designers so not sure it's correct, also don't assign bugs it's not you who decides who is working on what in ubuntu

the image change is also wrong the xsplash image should be used since the theme copy will be dropped in the next upload

@Sebastien: the other change (the metacity one) is needed too. Whitout that change if you click, for example, to the Accesibility icon you will see the Human theme (but gray), the metacity theme is needed to complete the gtk+ one.

    (LP: #421212)

    Devid Antonio Filoni! (LP: #439546)
  * 04_fix_external_program_directories.patch: Remove *.rej junk.

    need it.
