Description Atilla ÖNTAŞ 2014-02-04 19:47:54 UTC
Mageia Linux uses oxygen-gtk and oxygen-gtk3 styles as default for gtk applications. On Mate Desktop, i' ve noticed that oxygen-gtk does not respects local theme gtkrc window colors if bg[SELECTED] used for defining this. You can investigate as an example xl_monochrome themes gtkrc file here: http://pastebin.kde.org/penzxbswb

This issue does not occur if window border colors hardcoded into gtkrc. Only if bg[SELECTED] used. Thanks in advance.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install oxygen-gtk along with other gtk+2.0 themes
2. Change theme with a theme that uses bg[SELECTED] for window decoration colors

Actual Results:  
You can notice that even current theme has a colour other than blue, it always displays that blue.

Expected Results:  
Current theme window bordor colour settings should be applied.

Uninstalling oxygen-gtk or changing default theme style in Mageia's default: /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc from gtk-theme-name = "oxygen-gtk" to gtk-theme-name = "any_other_theme" fixes this issue.

This issue was reported in Mageia.org forums for Mageia 3 packages but at the time i did not investigate this issue well. See:

is unrelated. Has to do with packaging and config files, not with the way window decorations are rendered when using oxygen-gtk, as far as I know. 

Oxygen-gtk itself does not do anything to "install itself"
