When installing a new GTK theme a duplicate of that theme appears

[António Lima]

When installing a new theme under Gnome theme manager a strange duplicate theme appears on the "controls" tab. This happens most of the times but not always. I'll upload a screenshot of the theme manager.

It only appears to happen with certain themes, no way to know without actually trying them, the DarkIce theme in the original screen shot does cause this.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:

 * Is this reproducible?
 * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
 * What ubuntu version do you use?

 This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

A theme which reproduces this bug.

[Neil Munro (neilmunro-deactivatedaccount)]

1) Yes, it is reproducible, see attachment above.
2) Install the theme above, and you should get two entries for the same theme in the theme manager.
3) I am running 8.04, but I believe it has occurred in previous versions too.

It also happens with metacity themes as I have just discovered.
 If you cannot read the theme it reads 'gaia siberia' and can be downloaded from here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Gaia+Siberia+Metacity?content=75931
