Description: Recently, some murrine themes stopped working for me, so I decided to use murrine from git. I installed it and worked ok, so I made this Fedora packages for my personal use that I share with you.
Please be considerate and realize this is a GNOME site, so please put up themes that all Linux users, can use!
This isn't Fedora-Look.org... LOL... :)
Thanks...
If I put this in Fedora-look.org, it will appear here also.
And...are you blind? This is a GTK engine dude, so the right place is here.
Or you didn't see how many GTK engines packaged for other distributions are in this category also? Do you want a list of them, or will you search by yourself?

From now on sources are in the repo.
Please browse my repo to get src rpm packages:

Or if you have my repo installed, do the following:
$ sudo yum update skytux-repo$ yumdownloader --source gtk-murrine-engine
Good luck!

Hey, this is awesome. Thanks a lot! I used this to try a theme out to see how it looked on Fedora.
Just one comment/question. In the Ubuntu package (git20100323), checkboxes and radio buttons in menus look like this:

But with any previous build in Ubuntu, or using this Murrine build on Fedora, they are bubbly and colored in with the selected background color. I didn't think to take a screenshot when I was using it, I apologize. But it's similar to this:

I didn't know if this is something I messed up or could change on my part with an option through gtkrc or what.
Anyway, thanks again. This helped me out a lot, and I really enjoyed Fedora. I'll have to try it more.

Hello Darin:
I'm not the developer of the engine, I'm only a mortal Fedora packager :-)

Hi gracca, you know, in the end last time it didn't work for me, since you updated it I decided to give it another try but again it installs just fine but all murrine themes stop working afterwards.
So I can only think of one thing, different versions of Fedora?, which Fedora are you using to compile these rpm? I'm still stuck on 11 :$ and maybe that's the reason.
Thanks.
Actually, I use Fedora 12 to compile the packages. I think I should have said that before. Sorry, it was my fault :-(
But the previous version, did it work for you? If so, you can still use that version.
Un abrazo,
Germán.
Oh I see, I'm not sure if it's actually that but I may use it as an excuse to finally upgrade to Fedora 12 lol
The previous didn't worked for me either :( anyway, thanks for your reply, if I upgrade and it works I'll let you know and also give you the + I owe you lol
See ya ~
Thank you so much for doing this. I had seen a lot of great themes lately but couldn't use them due to the fact that I was not running Ubuntu. You have made it possible and I appreciate the work you put into this.

Thank you for this, it's great. Just one question: what icons are you using in the second screenshot on the panel (the grey ones)??
