Two themes in the openbox-themes (1.0.2) package contain typographical errors that cause obconf to segfault immediately:

The output from obconf (2.0.3+git20110808-1) is:

(obconf:6173): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
ObRender-Message: Unable to parse color '#0000000'
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I don't think this error message is worded properly.

"ObRender-Message" doesn't tell the user that this is a critical error which will cause failure, nor does it tell the user where the error is actually coming from.

In this particular case, the errors are in:

/usr/share/themes/AbsE/openbox-3/themerc, line70:
window.active.button.toggled.bg.color: #0000000

/usr/share/themese/Wblue/openbox-3/themerc, line 69:
window.active.button.toggled.bg.color: #0000000

This bug report applies to both openbox-themes, which needs to have typographical errors corrected, and obconf, which needs a better error message.
