I'm trying to change the theme of my pelican blog but after installing with pelican-themes and changing pelicanconf.py I get these errors:

WARNING:root:Unable to find /theme/css/screen.css or variations. WARNING:root:Unable to find /theme/css/screen.css or variations. WARNING:root:Unable to find /theme/css/screen.css or variations.

I've tried a few themes (Blue penguin, chunk, iris, martin, and bulrush) in 2 different computers (both running Ubuntu 17.10. I've updated pelican in virtualenv.

The previous theme I was using (pelican-clean-blog) displays ok and without errors. Notmyidea also works fine. Both have been installed for a few months. Back then I tried some more themes and had no issues.

I've tried installing copying the files into themes, as a git submodule and as a symlink.

Toggling RELATIVE_URLS does nothing.

I've not tried to publish to github-pages as there is something wrong with the html.

My searches have not provided a solution.

Thanks!

The pelican-themes tool is mainly for folks who want to use pre-built themes without customizing them. If you want to customize a theme, I suggest you use the THEME setting.

Thanks, that is what I was trying to do, try some themes.
