Thread: Upgrade to Oneiric breaks Gnome application themes

i've upgraded xubuntu oneiric natty , very disappointed , quite annoyed.

there couple of issues i'm having problems with, first of removal of gnome-pilot repositories.

not big deal, say? nobody has old palm pilots more?
do! i've got 3 of them!

, i'd rather not use dedicated application, liked having gnome-pilot sit on panel, passively waiting me hit sync button on palm device.

second, uninstalled pidgin, noticed wasn't removed repositories, i'm rather confused reason that.
i've reinstalled already, it's not big issue.

however, i'm not happy above 2 removals done without asking.
previous upgrades have given me full list of they're going remove, asked me if allow it.
time, went ahead , removed bunch of things, gave me shorter list, did not contain above 2 applications.

thirdly, i'm running xfce desktop, have use gnome applications in daily work (in particular gedit), there issue gnome applications unthemed.

xfce or plain gtk applications themed per xfce settings, no gnome application has skin, , changing settings in gnome-control-center nothing.
doesn't show custom themes!

great, found out section of rug pulled out under me.
yet reason bash oneiric.

time gnome-device-manager.
use lot check on whether devices i've plugged in recognized.

yesterday i'd installed internal multi-card reader , plugged 1 of motherboard's usb plugs , wanted know if worked, , can't because took away tool!

i'm not happy @ all.
