Hello Alexander, Ian, others, I was thinking about this package the other day, mainly because it is completely abandoned at this point in time. When I wrote the code, during the end of Dapper and throughout the Edgy cycle, it was mostly in shape and worked well. I think there were even some plans to get the Human theme to be the default theme. However, once I stopped actively contributing to Ubuntu, the package has been left in the cold and I think there are still numerous aesthetic bugs filed against it. There seems to be no interest at all to keep the Ubuntu specific themes integrated (I think) since there aren't any new commits in the repository: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/firefox-themes-ubuntu/ubuntu Unfortunate as it may seem I can't commit myself to maintaining this package anymore right now and apparently the powers that be do not see the visual integration of Firefox as a priority so it might be best to just remove the package from the build list / repository. If someone does want to pick this back up, I can provide a few hints here and there as to how to code is structured and where to patch the Firefox chrome.
