Upgraded to from gnome-2.10.2 stable to 2.12.2 stable. This pulled in gtk-engines-2.6.6. When selecting Desktop>Preferences>Themes, the Theme chooser malfunctions. Scrolling thru the themes smears the theme list and only the first 4 are selectable. Upgrading to gtk-engines-2.6.7 (~x86) seems to solve the problem.

Same problem here. It's the Crux theme that's doing it. Another solution (instead of upgrading to 2.6.7) is to just delete /usr/share/themes/Crux. Perhaps an -r* could remove Crux until 2.6.7 is stable, seeing as how it doesn't work anyway, and fixes this problem?

gtk-engines-2.6.6 has been removed from the tree, in favour of gtk-engines-2.6.7, already stable for a number of KEYWORDS. Thank you for reporting this problem.
