Comment 3 for bug 298751

The problem is that we want to preserve the user's customisations (if they've made any). The Scubuntu theme packages install the proper defaults in /usr/share/gconf/defaults, but these don't overwrite any local config the user has.

Version 0.3 of scubuntu-defaults includes a script that sets all the gconf values correctly (overwriting whatever the user had there). This script must be run by the user, but there is a desktop file included, placing it in the Prefs menu.
