@psychma: This is what the install script is trying to do (currently starting from line 139):

  # link gtk4.0 for libadwaita
  mkdir -p                                                                                   "${HOME}/.config/gtk-4.0"
  rm -rf "${HOME}/.config/gtk-4.0/"{assets,gtk.css,gtk-dark.css}
  ln -sf "${THEME_DIR}/gtk-4.0/assets"                                                       "${HOME}/.config/gtk-4.0/assets"
  ln -sf "${THEME_DIR}/gtk-4.0/gtk.css"                                                      "${HOME}/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css"
  ln -sf "${THEME_DIR}/gtk-4.0/gtk-dark.css"                                                 "${HOME}/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk-dark.css"

What one should do after installing the theme is manually symlink the /usr/share/themes/Colloid-color-variant/gtk4.0/ folder for the color variant you want to use to ~/.config/ as outlined above.

I haven't looked how to patch that bit out, but I really don't want to have to update the patch every time Vince changes something.

Installing the theme via yay sets links in GTK 4.0 configuration directory pointing to temporary yay folders:

❯ la .config/gtk-4.0
insgesamt 12K
lrwxrwxrwx 1 cp cp 130  6. Mai 08:03 assets -> /home/cp/.cache/yay/colloid-gtk-theme-git/pkg/colloid-gtk-theme-git/usr/share/themes/Colloid-grey-dark-compact-nord/gtk-4.0/assets

@bsosenba: Vince updated the install script recently so that it will still install the new GNOME Shell theme if gnome-shell is not found. I've dropped it from makedepends(). Either way, one can always remove build dependencies after building or build in a chroot.

As far as the missing file, open an issue upstream or wait for it to be fixed.

@yochananmarqos, there are XFCE and Cinnamon users who may want to install this without having to install gnome-shell and all of its dependencies. Gtk themes can be used on other desktops besides gnome-shell. Also, the package is broken as of today. My AUR helper says "thumbnail-red-dark.png: No such file or directory"

yochananmarqos commented on 2022-02-12 21:25 (UTC)

The icon theme is now in a separate upstream repo and separate AUR package: colloid-icon-theme-git

@yochananmarqos Yes . But people shouldn't have to install gnome-shell and all of its dependencies just to have the gtk theme then remove it.It leaves unnecessary packages after that since makepkg cleans only dependencies that you specify in the PKGBUILD (if using an AUR helper). But just forget it.This package is not worthed.Better dirrectly get theme from git.

yochananmarqos commented on 2021-12-17 17:17 (UTC)

@Zetta1Reid0: It includes a GNOME Shell theme as well.

Zetta1Reid0 commented on 2021-12-17 17:08 (UTC)

@yochananmarqos If you are not using gnome-shell that doesn't really matter. It is a Gtk theme not gnome shell theme.

yochananmarqos commented on 2021-12-17 16:18 (UTC)

@Zetta1Reid0: See the install.sh. If it can't find gnome-shell during build, it will not be able to install the correct syles. It's needed for building in a clean chroot.

Zetta1Reid0 commented on 2021-12-17 13:35 (UTC)

@yochananmarqos What are you talking about. Gnome shell isn't even needed to build this theme. See the github repo,original developer doesn't even mention gnome-shell as a dependency. Pulling the gnome-shell and all of its dependencies is completely redundant. Also the Gtk theme shouldn't depend on the icon theme. Both can be used seperatly.
