What happened to Unico?

Just noticed when trying to install some themes that Unico is no longer present in the Arch repositories...

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … ine-unico/

Is it no longer required or...?

Cheers !

Re: What happened to Unico?

It looks like it's been removed from the community database for some reason:

You should probably open a bug report about it.

I might be talking out of my behind here, but isn't the reason for that the fact gtk3 dumped support for any theme engines and only accepts CSS themes now?

That may be a reason it would go away eventually, but gtk2 is still *very* widely used by countless programs in the repos and the gtk-engines and other themes remain in the repos.  So that doesn't seem like it could be a reason.

Re: What happened to Unico?

I thought murrine was GTK2 (which is still present in the repo) and Unico was GTK3. So I guess you could be right. I would need to create an account/etc to make a bug report and I am not sure this is even a bug - might be intentional? Either way, not so important I guess smile can find other themes
