Package: clearlooks-phenix-lightpurpy-theme
Version: 7.0.1-4

* Steps to reproduce
- Install Excalibur with the MATE desktop using 
devuan_excalibur_6.0-20250830_amd64_netinstall.iso.
- In Synaptic, install both clearlooks-phenix-lightpurpy-theme and 
clearlooks-phenix-darkpurpy-theme.
- Go to System -> Preferences -> Look and Feel -> Appearance
- In the Theme tab, the DarkPurpy preview appears, but the LightPurpy preview 
does not. Instead, it shows a question mark.
- Clicking on LightPurpy shows the error: "... the required GTK+ theme 
'Clearlooks-Phenix-LightPurpy' is not installed."

* Cause
- In the file /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks-Phenix-Lightpurpy/index.theme, the 
fields "GtkTheme" and "MetacityTheme" have the value 
"Clearlooks-Phenix-LightPurpy", but the directory name is 
"Clearlooks-Phenix-Lightpurpy", with a lower case 'p'.
- I've confirmed that changing both fields to "Clearlooks-Phenix-Lightpurpy" 
fixes the theme.
- I've also confirmed that renaming the directory to 
"Clearlooks-Phenix-LightPurpy" also fixes the theme. I think this is the better 
solution, because it matches the DarkPurpy capitalization.

* Proposed solution
- Update the package to install the theme in the directory 
"Clearlooks-Phenix-LightPurpy".

* Additional info
- I couldn't reproduce this problem in the Live Desktop 
devuan_excalibur_6.0-noraid-2025-08-29_1719_amd64_desktop-live.iso, Xfce 
desktop. From my testing, it appears that Xfce's Appearance app doesn't read the 
index.theme file. You can delete that file and the theme still works.
