I emerged xmms-themes but those do not show up in the theme browser. Moreover can't find those using locate 'xmms | grep theme'! (Yes, I did 'locate -u' just before this.) So it seems not to be present although portage says it is. I add a screenshot. Maybe interesting - I have a problem with xine-ui but it's the oter way around. *sigh* See bug # 96077 .

So it's there and it's "Skins" not "themes" - but why doesn't xmms find those - is it possible to add those directory to the skin browser automatically on 'emerge xmms-themes'?
I added those dirs manually but the themes are still not there. (Moreover the two installe are missing now so I will reemerge xmms *grmpf)
reemerging didn't 'add' more skins/themes however xmms works
This is strange. When you emerge xmms-themes, the Skins will be available in /usr/share/xmms/Skins. So you have to run xmms and change the Skin dir because by default the available Skin dir is ~/.xmms/Skins.
Well, this time xmms can see the other themes. Now I wonder why /usr/share/xmms/Skins is not added AUTOMATICALLY after the emerge of xmms-themes to the "skin-directories" of xmms.
I don't like the idea because xmms would need a patch for it. And i can't force users to use xmms-themes. The best way it's the current way. Let the users decide what to use.
Well, it's not about forcing someone to use different skins. But in the "skin-manager" you can tell xmms different directorys as location for skins (so there is a list of directories). So the users choice should not change, but the directory with the additional skings sould be in / ADDED to the list. Imo there is a reason why users emerge xmms-themes so what's wrong about that ^^?
