Gtk+ themes don't work

[Rob Thornton]

In windows, GTk+ themes don't work. Theme engines can't be found because gtk+ libraries shipped with package use a libdir of "C:\MinGW\..." These either need to be:

a) reconfigured with a proper --prefix for windows and use DESTDIR for a temporary install so the GTK+ libraries can be found
b) use a script to set GTK_EXE_PATH to where the theme engines are found
c) copy the theme engines to %home%\.gtk-2.0\...

a > c > b

choice c is easiest to implement.

Install private Gtk+. Assign environment variable GTK_EXE_PPREFIX to private install. If GTK+ runtime is already installed, don't set variable. Runtime will properly allow new themes and theme engines to be added/installed. Let user set Default theme, or add their own private themes, in %home%\.gtk-2.0. Must play nice with others! Private GTK, with GTK_EXE_PREFIX set, will be fall-back.

[Rob Thornton (rob-t-telus)]

Theme engines now installed in GTK_EXE_PREFIX, which should expand to "$INSTDIR\Gtk". Will also respect theme engines found in the standard areas GTK normally searches. Temporary code in place to force a specific theme but once this code is removed it should use the default theme specified in $HOMEPROFILE\.gtk-2.0\share\themes\Default\gtk-2.0\gtkrc.
