### Requirements
* Gnome/GTK 3.14, 3.16 or 3.18
* The `gnome-themes-standard` package
* The murrine engine. This has different names depending on your distro.
* `gtk-engine-murrine` (Arch Linux)
* `gtk2-engines-murrine` (Debian, Ubuntu, elementary OS)
* `gtk-murrine-engine` (Fedora)
* `gtk2-engine-murrine` (openSUSE)
* `gtk-engines-murrine` (Gentoo)
Main distributions that meet these requirements are
* Arch Linux and Arch Linux based distros
* Ubuntu 15.04
* elementary OS Freya
* Debian Jessie, Testing or Unstable
* Gentoo
* Fedora 21 and 22
* OpenSuse 13.2 and Tumbleweed
Derivatives of these distributions should work, aswell.
If your distribution is not listed, please check the requirements yourself.
### Installation
**Important:** Remove all older versions of the theme from your system before you proceed any further.
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/themes/Ceti-2
rm -rf ~/.local/share/themes/Ceti-2
rm -rf ~/.themes/Ceti-2
**Packages**
Prebuilt packages for Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and openSUSE are available at
http://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3AHorst3180&package=ceti-2-theme
Arch Linux users can install the theme from the AUR
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ceti-2-themes/
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ceti-2-themes-git/
**Manual Installation**
To build the theme you need
* `autoconf`
* `automake`
* `pkg-config` or `pkgconfig` if you use Fedora
* `libgtk-3-dev` for Debian based distros or `gtk3-devel` for RPM based distros
* `git` if you want to clone the source directory
If your distributions doesn't ship separate development packages you just need GTK 3 instead of the `-dev` packages.
Install the theme with the following commands
**1. Get the source**
If you want to install the latest version from git, clone the repository with
git clone https://github.com/horst3180/ceti-2-theme --depth 1 && cd ceti-2-theme
If you want to install the latest stable release, run
git clone https://github.com/horst3180/ceti-2-theme --depth 1 && cd ceti-2-theme
git fetch --tags
git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
or download it from https://github.com/horst3180/Ceti-2-theme/releases and cd into the extracted archive
**2. Build and install the theme**
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
sudo make install
Other options to pass to autogen.sh are
--disable-gnome-shell disable GNOME Shell support
--disable-gtk2 disable GTK2 support
--disable-gtk3 disable GTK3 support
--disable-metacity disable Metacity support
--disable-unity disable Unity support
--disable-xfwm disable XFWM support
--with-gnome= build the theme for a specific Gnome version (3.14, 3.16, 3.18)
Note: Normally the correct version is detected automatically and this
option should not be needed.
After the installation is complete you can activate the theme with `gnome-tweak-tool` or a similar program by selecting `Ceti-2`.
**Uninstall the theme**
Run
sudo make uninstall
from the same directory as this README resides in, or
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/themes/Ceti-2
### Extras
The `extra` directory in the same directory as this README resides in contains a Chrome/Chromium theme and an alternative metacity theme, which hides the window titles of maximized windows (doesn't work on Gnome 3.16 and up).
To install the Chrome/Chromium theme go to the `extra/Chrome` folder and drag and drop the Ceti-2-chrome.crx into the Chrome/Chromium window. The source of the Chrome themes is located in the source "Chrome/source" folder.
To install the alternative metacity theme, copy the `Ceti-2-alternative-metacity` folder to `/usr/share/themes` and select it as window theme.
### Troubleshooting
If you get artifacts like black or invisible backgrounds under Unity, disable overlay scrollbars with
gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal
