Error loading HumanCircle GDM theme

[lunch]

Binary package hint: ubuntu-gdm-themes

"There was an error loading the theme Human Circle
Failed to open file '/usr/share/gdm/themes/HumanCircle/../Human/ubuntu.png': No such file or directory"

HumanCircle.xml links to the nonexistant '../Human/ubuntu.png' and the dark '../Human/background.png'. It should probably rather link to the files in the HumanList directory.

ubuntu-gdm-themes 0.31ubuntu5

As the design of both the human circle and the human list theme is out of date and should therefore either be removed or updated.

OK, but shouldn't the broken HumanCircle theme be fixed as long as it isn't updated to the new design or is dropped? Will the theme be removed on upgrades if it's dropped? It wouldn't load without ubuntu.png.

I have this error too. I took a snapshot of it with my super-fancy GDM screenshot tool :P ( Shameless plug: http://www.cli-apps.org/content/show.php/GDM+Screenshot?content=86472 )

I also removed the patch flag on the screenshot... the screenshot is not a patch.

Confirming the bug as there is enough information to fix the problem (the suggested attached patch works fine for me).

@Paul Dufresne - I wasn't aware that uploading a file meant that it would be flagged as a patch - there is a checkbox that seems to have that function, and I assumed the flag would only "exist" if that checkbox was checked (which it wasn't).

Sorry for the misunderstanding,
John.

Shouldn't it be easy to just update the package?

Same here. I get the same error. I really wanted to use it, I kind of liked the preview of it. Oranges
