That said, this was just a simple interface tweak from the original. In theory all that's necessary is to learn the new CSS-based format and figure out what goes where.
What puts me off is it being an entirely new format I don't understand for a desktop I don't use - it won't be getting any testing if I did make it. - Aug 12 2012

But I've installed the Mate Gnome2 fork since Gnome3's arrival, and it doesn't show up in there. Can we have a Mate-compatible one?
(Mate homepage for the interested - matsusoft.com.ar/redmine/projects/mate) - Sep 01 2011
I had a glance through the Readme PDF, but couldn't find anything. I've already configured the set in Gnome, but nothing shows up.
I've got the ~/.icons directory symlinked to KDE's own icons directory, which made a lot of the Gnome themes show up... but not this.
Any ideas? - Jul 30 2011

Is it possible to tell it to skip the Kwin3 part of it and just do 4? - May 07 2011

'pacman -Q'
Running 'yaourt -Q' instead will also list which repository it is from which probably isn't necessary, so I suggest always running it with pacman instead.
For reference the exact format of the output is like this:
zenity 2.32.0-1
zip 3.0-1.1
All the commands listed will be available in a normal Gnome session - or at least they are in mine. In theory, they should all be there. - Nov 17 2010

'pacman -S wine'
Those packages that need the AUR aren't available as normal packages - unlike Ubuntu with it's PPAs, the AUR provides a PKGBUILD file, which is then parsed by 'makepkg' to create the package.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR should help explain those.
Yaourt is not installed by default, no, but it can be installed.
If the file /etc/pacman.conf includes the lines:
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686
(or .../x86_64 for 64-bit)
Then 'pacman -S yaourt' will work.
If those lines don't exist, then they need to be added to the end of the file.
Murrine's engine packages:
32-bit: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/i686/gtk-engine-murrine/
64-bit: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/gtk-engine-murrine/
And the AUR package can be built on both 32 and 64 bit systems, found here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25649
To list all files provided by a package, it has to be installed first. The command is:
'pacman -Ql package'
Again, yaourt can be used in place of pacman.
Arch doesn't exactly install anything except the base system by default, so I don't believe GPG is instaled, but can be installed with:
'pacman -S gpgme'
The command listed doesn't return anything with '-n 1' in place. However, changing it to '-n 2' results in:
Arch Linux \r (\n) (\l)
with a blank line before it. - Nov 17 2010

(or yaourt -U ...) - Nov 17 2010

Nautilus Elementary is available for Arch w.o Aptitude though, via the AUR.
The following command *should* install all the packages except for Wine, provided the user has yaourt installed... which in turn must be installed from AUR or the [archlinuxfr] repository. A few of the packages names are slightly different, as Arch doesn't separate '-bin' '-devel' and similar packages, they all exist as the same package.
'yaourt -S gvfs xdg-user-dirs plymouth wget gnomenu ccsm dockbarx emerald emesene fusion-icon screenlets wine nautilus-elementary-bzr'
Of those, plymouth, gnomenu, dockbarx (or dockbarx-bzr) and nautilus-elementary-bzr are the only packages that must be built from the AUR.
Local install of a package in arch is simply 'pacman -U packagename.pkg.tar.zx'
as yaourt is a frontend to pacman, 'yaourt -U also works.
In theory, it should be possible to repackage a .deb into an Arch package - possibly through the 'alien' package in Debian/Ubuntu, I don't know if it supports Arch's native. If not, Arch's pkgextract (from AUR) is meant for extracting both debs and rpms.
As to piping the packages to a file... in theory, unless the user has manually changed any of the packages (like substituting 'gtk-engine-murrine-git' with it's non-git counterpart, the same command used to install them should work to remove them, if you change '-S' to '-R'
hopefully that helps. - Nov 17 2010

So far I've managed to get a handful of checks to work for pacman, but I'm thinking of switching it over to the AUR-compatible 'yaourt' instead, since the git version of murrine is probably preferable to the one in [community] repository. - Nov 17 2010

Is there any chance of a Murrine-AeroRed varient to go with the Blue/Black/Pink ones? I have a Gnomenu entry for a red menu, and I've recoloured (badly) the blue panel to red, but I can't seem to figure out how exactly to turn any of the other Win2-7-Murrine-Aero GTK themes red. Changing the colours from Gnome Appearance Properties doesn't seem to work. - Nov 16 2010

I'll work on this for a bit, and see what I can come up with. Is there a place for the development of this that I might call on for any other referances, etc? - Nov 11 2010

I think I'll have a wander through the script and see if I can write up a version which will work with Arch's Pacman, if you (or other developers) don't mind. I'd like to see this working on a few more distros. - Nov 11 2010

I suppose if I wasn't the impatient kind, I could just take the bits of the script I need.
As to 'default window manager' - does that actually matter? With the exception of Slackware and a few others, almost every distro has Gnome available somehow. If it's available, surely that means it can be installed all the same, no? - Nov 11 2010

Full Icon Themes by juandejesuss 1742 comments
The older install scripts could at least put the files in the right place and explain what needed to be done to apply it. Maybe those of us on Arch, Gentoo, Slackware and the like don't always need that, but some of us prefer it to be there.
I guess support for them would be too much to ask without someone willing to donate the time to it though, so I look forward to it being made Arch-compatible, at least. - Nov 10 2010

Both dependencies and recommendeds were met, and make install as root installed it fine.
But trying to add it to the panel causes python to crash. There is a bug report in Python about it filed filed here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=560414
Would like to have Gnomenu working in Fedora - Mar 02 2010
