How To Install Xfce Theme Manager

Leave a comment

Dear Debian folks,I have been trying toinstall xfce theme manager(I am running DebianJessie on an AMD 64 box).I found a web sitewhere there appeared to besome packages that may may notwork in debian (perhaps betterused in e.g. Ubuntu).I downloaded the ones thatseemed relevant and tried usingaptitude to install them but itdid not work.I also noticed another web siteOn this website, which was dealingwith e.g. Xubuntu not debian thecommands recommended to install itwere:sudo add-apt-repositoryppa:rebuntu16/other-stuffsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get installxfce-theme-managerI think the reason it may not beworking in my case is that I don'tknow what the correct equivalent ofsudo add-apt-repositoryppa:rebuntu16/other-stuffwould be for a debian user.If it isn't possible to make therepository work in debian at present Icould try installing from a tar fileinstead.Maybe that is what I should be doinghere.Please excuse my ignorance here.Suggestions on this are most welcome.

UPDATE: this theme is broken since XFCE 4.12+ and therefore deprecated. Instead, take a look at Numix theme project.

  • Window borders is Numix Holo.
  • Icons are Cheser theme.
  • Cursor is DMZ white theme.
  • GTK3 theme is based on this Numix Holo on Github.
