RPM build of the great theme produced by https://github.com/catppuccin/gtk.
Installing the RPM puts the theme in /usr/share/themes/
. Available RPMs can be found in in Releases:
catppuccin-gtk
(All the flavors and colors!)catppuccin-gtk-Frappe
catppuccin-gtk-Frappe-<specific color>
catppuccin-gtk-Mocha
catppuccin-gtk-Mocha-<specific color>
catppuccin-gtk-Macchiato
catppuccin-gtk-Macchiato-<specific color>
catppuccin-gtk-Latte
catppuccin-gtk-Latte-<specific color>
To build the RPMs yourself, you need a Linux distro that uses RPMs.
Run configure.sh
to install prerequisite build tools.
Then issue the build command:
make rpm
After installing an RPM, start using the theme. This has only been tested on GNOME 41 so YMMV:
Install the tools that allow you to customize the theme:
yum install gnome-tweaks gnome-extensions-app gnome-shell-extension-user-theme
Log out/back in. TBD why this is needed, but it updates the GNOME Extensions app to see the user-theme
extension just installed.
Open GNOME Extensions app and toggle the button to allow User Themes.
Open GNOME Tweaks app and under the Appearance tab, update the Applications Theme and Shell Theme to the one you just installed.
Enjoy Catppuccin GTK :)
Bonus: Apply the theme to GDM too. The following steps are in install-gdm-theme.sh
too.
sudo cp -av /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource{,~}
THEME_NAME="$(gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme | sed "s/'//g")"
THEME_SRC_DIR="/usr/share/themes/$THEME_NAME/gnome-shell"
sudo glib-compile-resources --target="/usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource" --sourcedir="$THEME_SRC_DIR" "$THEME_SRC_DIR/gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml"
More bonus: Change the GDM logo
/usr/share/pixmaps/
. You can use cat.png
from this project.Create new file for the gdm
user's dconf settings. Make sure it has this content:
user-db:user system-db:gdm file-db:/usr/share/gdm/greeter-dconf-defaults
Define the keyfile to set the logo:
[org/gnome/login-screen] logo='/usr/share/pixmaps/cat.png'
Update the dconf database
sudo dconf update
