Expected results:
"GTK" theme shouldn't have been altered.

Additional info:

hmm, doesn't happen here. Can you describe your "playing around" in more detail ?
What version of xorg-x11-xkbdata do you have ?

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2006-03-02 15:36:58 UTC
I wonder if settings daemon is crashing...

Comment 3 Joachim Frieben 2006-03-02 19:31:13 UTC
To reverify the issue once again, I execute the following steps using
the mouse solely, not the keyboard:

1. Remove all dot directories (.gnome2, ..) in my account to reset them
   to factory defaults.
2. Upon log-in, set "GTK" theme to "Bluecurve". Works.
3. Launch "gnome-keyboard-properties".
4. Go to "Layouts" (Keyboard model: "Generic 105-key (Intl) PC",
   Scheme: "German Eliminate dead keys").
5. Click "Add..."
6. Select "U.S. English layout".
7. Confirm ("OK").

Bingo! The theme switches instantaneously to "Clearlooks". Reopen
"gnome-theme-manager", and see the theme switch back to "Bluecurve"
wich is still selected there. Version of "xorg-x11-xkbdata" is 1.0.1-6
which is the latest one. Without yesterday's "xorg-x11-xkbdata" mess,
I would have probably never noticed this one!

Comment 4 Joachim Frieben 2006-03-15 11:45:27 UTC
Bug still present in "control-center-2.14.0-1". I checked with the
live CD of another distro that the issue is not Fedora specific.
It occurs there, too.

Comment 5 Ray Strode [halfline] 2006-03-15 17:16:37 UTC
Hi Joachim, 

what if you upgrade to the libxklavier in rawhide?

Comment 6 Joachim Frieben 2006-03-15 19:38:07 UTC
I installed the system from scratch yesterday (rawhide 03/14/06).
Todays updates were obviously also installed, thus including
"control-center-2.14.0-1" as stated in commet #4. Anything else
to update to?

Comment 7 Ray Strode [halfline] 2006-03-15 20:20:30 UTC
No that should have everything (assuming you have libxklavier-2.1.0.2006.02.23-2).

I'm fairly sure this is a duplicate of bug 183569, but it could be the
workaround added to libxklavier to help address that bug doesn't actually work
around all the problem cases.
