One additional consideration. Maybe one answer to my request could be: Ubuntu desktop is opinionated, provide a few extensions and restricted customization options, you're not supposed to change the gtk widget theme, let alone the shell theme for mere consistency with widgets, and if you want to do that, well you have already found a workaround. And I would agree. But then there is this other aspect: not allowing vanilla Gnome users to set Yaru, of all themes, as their shell theme, would be perplexing given the status of Yaru as emblematic of Ubuntu. So, short of having it both ways, I would still propose to let vanilla sessions set Yaru as the shell theme, that is:
ln -s /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/Yaru /usr/share/themes/Yaru /gnome-shell This also has the advantage that only the yaru-theme package has to be modified. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1832137 Title: Switch Adwaita/Yaru shell themes under vanilla/ubuntu gnome sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yaru-theme/+bug/1832137/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
