/usr/lib/Loginized/resources/app/src/../loginized-cli.sh: line 128: /tmp/shell/theme/extensions/ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com/yaru.css: No such file or directory /usr/lib/Loginized/resources/app/src/../loginized-cli.sh: line 128: /tmp/shell/theme/modes/yaru.json: No such file or directory

Compiled the Yaru theme, when I select it and hit save, the above error comes up. I checked the tmp folder, and the modes folder is not getting copied to tmp, but the file exists in the /usr/share/theme/yaru... etc.

Using Manjaro Gnome stable, up to date as of posting.

Thanks for your notice. Could you possibly provide me the theme file what you were trying to use via comment to this thread attaching the file in the comment? Or link to the theme where it can be downloaded so I can try.. Also can you provide detailed action bullets that you performed to get to this problem? I guess the theme originally did not have compiled theme version available so you used this application to compile the theme and then tried to use it and that caused error? Or what happened.

I'll get back to this when I get some sort of resolution to this. Also I'm working on new version of the app hopefully that will have less these kind of issues.

If you are not replying in 30 days I'll close the issue as resolved.

@jasonames42 I did some investigation on this issue and everything works without any issues on my machine. I did test this on latest manjaro and with latest release 1.0.0 loginized application. there might be an error in process to create gnome shell resource from correct files.. It is really necessary to have correct file set to create the login theme.

To install Yaru theme as login theme in Manjaro latest stable Gnome you can follow these steps to complete this.

  1. Download latest loginized application
    1. Open the application --> settings --> install the loginized-cli
  2. Install yaru-gnome-shell-theme from AUR repository
  3. Browse to folder /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme you will see there a folder named Yaru
    1. Copy this folder to /usr/share/themes/
    2. Create folder named gnome-shell in it and then move all the content into the folder
    3. Outcome is that you will have folder /usr/share/themes/Yaru/gnome-shell/ which contains all the theme files required by login theme.
  4. Now run following command # loginized-cli compile . in folder /usr/share/themes/Yaru/gnome-shell/
    1. Now there is 2 more files generated. gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml and gnome-shell-theme.gresource file itself.
    2. This is good since now you can see this theme in loginized application or in Gnome Tweak tool
  5. Open loginized application and select the Yaru theme from the list and press Save.
  6. 🎉 It works!

Also install the yaru-gtk-theme also if you wish to use the Yaru theme for the applications as well!
