I can see something's wrong here...Could you help? [fdb-red-test and fdb-originalv7.1a1 are the offending one's here]

Edit: Could you also help me in identifying what I might have done wrong during the packaging for the differing permissions? I use your meegotouchtheme-example for packaging and for fdb-originalv7.1a1 I used fdb-originalv7.0a8 as the base...fdb-red-test was just copied manually over to test...

Can you show the contents of the index.theme files for the themes that don't get detected?

Also note that if you add/remove a theme the changes won't be visible in the Settings application (in case of Theme Settings) until you leave the Theme settings applet and show it again (in case it was already visible).

Ya i leave the Theme settings applet before opening it again...

Contents of fdb-originalv7.1a1 :

In the above the first and third ones don't get detected while second and fourth work...

Edit: Don't you think that something is wrong in the permissions from my earlier post?

Well yeah, the ones that don't work seem to have the execute permission for the index.theme file. I don't know why it would matter, but you can of course try saying

Code:

chmod ugo-x /usr/share/themes/fdb-red-test/index.theme /usr/share/themes/fdb-originalv7.1a1/index.theme

and see if that helps. If it does, then QSettings refuses to load files which have the execute permission set.

The execute permission doesn't seem to make a difference for me, at least. Could you package all the index.theme files and send them over, like

Code:

tar zvcf indexes.tar.gz /usr/share/themes/*/index.theme

Nope it doesn't fix it...I did a reboot just in case too before and after the chmod but still no luck...Weird thing is that fdb-red-test is the same fdb-red i already have on my system just added "-test" to it after no themes were getting detected even after uninstalling a number of themes...

You have a byte order mark in the beginning of the file in those themes that don't work:

Code:

00000000   EF BB BF 5B  44 65 73 6B  74 6F 70 20  45 6E 74 72  79 5D 0A 54  79 70 65 3D  58 2D 4D 65  ...[Desktop Entry].Type=X-Me

Use an editor that doesn't put any byte order marks there.

Could you correct me on this as I couldn't find any white spaces at the end of the lines...pressing delete after the "]" brought up the next line to the same level...

Doing a diff gave:

Edit: I was using nano and after deleting the whole line and re-adding it on fdb-originalv7.1a1 it WORKED! Fdb-red-test works too after doing the same!

Thanks a ton Vesuri!

No white spaces at the end of the as I originally wrote, sorry. There's a byte order mark in the beginning of the file (before [Desktop Entry]) which confuses QSettings.
