a huge thanks for providing this solution
]]>EDIT: 2 hours later :-)
You can get rid of the error message by copying /opt/gnome/share/themes/Default and /opt/gnome/share/themes/Emacs to /usr/share/themes/...
I have checked that:
pacman -Qo /opt/gnome/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
/opt/gnome/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc is owned by gtk2 2.4.0-1
So gtk2 places these files in /opt/gnome but looks for them in /usr.
And this is from gtk2's PKGBUILD file:
build() {
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
--datadir=/opt/gnome/share --with-xinput=yes
This is strange and frankly now I don't know what to do with it :-) exept for manually moving these files to /usr/share. Perhaps someone could contiune this little "investigation" and solve or report it where necessary...

I'm not a gnome expert and I don't know if keyboard themes are included in this but you don't have to install the whole gnome-extra. You can install any of the above packages with pacman -S (remember to firt upgrade pacman database with pacman -Sy or pacman -Syu).

and I don't believe that keyboards shortcuts are in extras
