Hi there, you can follow this guide taken from the contribute page :) I will close this issue since it has nothing to do with the development of this theme, regards and have fun with this theme :)

Gnome Shell theme

Download the repository from github

git clone https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-communitheme.git cd gnome-shell-communitheme

Initialize build system (only required once per repo)

meson build --prefix=/usr cd build

Build and install

sudo ninja install If you want to change the GDM look and point to the same stylesheet. You only need to do this once.

update-alternatives --install /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css gdm3.css /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/communitheme/gnome-shell.css 15 GTK theme

Download the repository from github

git clone https://github.com/ubuntu/gtk-communitheme.git

Enter the directory you just cloned

cd gtk-communitheme

Initialize build system (only required once per repo)

meson build --prefix=/usr cd build

Build and install

sudo ninja install Suru Icon theme

Download the repository from github

git clone https://github.com/ubuntu/suru-icon-theme.git

Enter the directory you just cloned

cd suru-icon-theme

Initialize build system (only required once per repo)

meson build --prefix=/usr cd build

Build and install

sudo ninja install Now everything should be in place. Reboot and login to the Communitheme on Xorg session and set the Communitheme themes using Gnome Tweaks.

@Feichtmeier Hey , sudo ninja build doesn't seem to work , shows build.ninja no such file pr directory

Feichtmeier commented 6 years ago

Install meson

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

@Feichtmeier already installed

Feichtmeier commented 6 years ago

Are you in the build folder

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

yes

Feichtmeier commented 6 years ago

You got telegram ? So we don't need to spam GitHub

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

riot.im ?

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

@Feichtmeier I'm getting meson build error , meson.build:6:0: ERROR: Program(s) ['sassc'] not found or not executable . Any idea ?

Feichtmeier commented 6 years ago

Install sassc

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

Yep , already tried that sudo yum install scssc package not found error

clobrano commented 6 years ago

Install sassc

not scssc. The name of the package might differ though, but I'm sure you'll find any answer with google

Thanks for trying Communitheme :)

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

Shhaaa , made a typo thanks installed sassc . After i run meson build command , there is a build file within which there are two more files meson-private and meson-logs.

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

@Feichtmeier @clobrano Ok so i seem to have successfully installed all the packages , i have the look on the app windows but when i login by setting community theme on xorg , i am dropped back to the login screen , can't seem to start the desktop when ubuntu communitheme on xorg is selected. P.S : It's for both the communitheme login options.

@PadamSethia Maybe "Communitheme session" doesn't work on distros other than Ubuntu.

Try to run:

sudo ln -sT /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/communitheme /usr/share/themes/Communitheme/gnome-shell

Then launch gnome-tweak-tool. You should be able to select Communitheme from "Shell".

highoncarbs commented 6 years ago

@nana-4 Yep that seemed to work. Thanks a lot.
