Re: gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs" has no effect

Hello,

Yes, there is a file called:

/usr/share/themes/Emacs/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc

Here's what pan tries to access:

strace -eaccess,lstat64 -f pan

access("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/iso8859-1/XLC_LOCALE", R_OK) = 0
access("/home/sypasche/.Xauthority", R_OK) = 0
lstat64("/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc", 0xbfffeabc) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.fr_CH", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.fr", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
lstat64("/home/sypasche/.gtkrc-2.0", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=29, ...}) = 0
access("/home/sypasche/.gtkrc-2.0.fr_CH", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/home/sypasche/.gtkrc-2.0.fr", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/home/sypasche/.themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

lstat64("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=69, ...}) = 0
access("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.fr_CH", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.fr", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/home/sypasche/.themes/Default/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc", F_OK) = 0
lstat64("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=82, ...}) = 0
access("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc.fr_CH", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/usr/share/themes/Default/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc.fr", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Apparently, it does not want to read the Emacs theme.

Cheers,

Sylvain
