Openbox Adwaita theme.
For my Arch desktop I usually go with LXDE and the default Adwaita theme (the only one I like that still works with GTK+ 3.20). I had been using an Openbox theme from box-look.org that integrates nicely:
http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Ad … ent=155042
However, I don't know what's happened to box-look.org but it's now just redirecting to beryl-themes.org. The Way Back Machine provides a snapshot of the page as it was:
https://web.archive.org/web/20150914235 … ent=155042
In order to preserve this theme I added it to AUR myself:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/open … e-adwaita/
Since there's no upstream the theme is currently held the AUR git repository in its entirety. I'm expecting to be told this is bad, just not sure what else to do with it at the moment. Since Adwaita has had a facelift since this theme was left updated, I altered the title bar colours to match the current theme while I was at it so I guess it's effectively a new theme. Any suggestions re. how to improve this package?
Thanks.

Re: Openbox Adwaita theme.
The site does seem to have changed (for the worse) but I'm not being redirected. Here's a theme with the same name and author as your original: https://www.box-look.org/p/1017694/
As to package details, probably better to ask in the AUR section rather than here. If yours is significantly different you could upload to box-look yourself.. or to your own github account?

Thanks. Yeah you're right I should have the package pull the .obt file from my own github repo, good suggestion.
