Compatibility with Xubuntu 16.04 #13

Closed yaztromo99 closed 6 years ago

yaztromo99 commented 8 years ago

HI, Have been using bluebird theme for some years, and was sad to see it go in 16.04. Apparently this is because bluebird does not support newer GTK3 versions.

Would it be trivial to provide compatibility so the theme can be used again in 16.04?

Thanks.

(Xubuntu 16.04 LTS uses GNOME 3.18)

As the EOL of Xubuntu 14.04 is the same as 16.04 and I see nothing compelling in the 16.04 release notes (other than the removal of Bluebird, my preferred GTK+ theme) I think the choice is clear.

Sticking with 14.04 until this is resolved.

@rahilwazir Thanks for the point to the repo. It's working for me on 15.10, even though bluebird is included on this release it's got some issues but the repo version fixed them. Will try on 16.04 soon, but assuming it will be fine.

Edit: Upgraded to 16.04. PPA Bluebird works ok.

I am about to make a new release of Bluebird tonight that includes a new gtk3 theme based on the latest version of Greybird, which should provide better support for recent GTK3 versions.
