Title:
  Installation for theme "name_of_the_theme" failed. Can't move
  directory over directory

Status in GNOME Desktop Common Files:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in Fedora:
  New

Bug description:
  After manually installing a theme, if one were to delete that theme
  and re-install the same theme after, the following message is
  produced:

  "Installation for theme <theme> failed. Can't move directory over
  directory"

  The reason for this is that the residual theme data in the ~/.themes/
  folder is not deleted upon theme deletion through Gnome-appearance-
  settings, and does not permit the user to install the theme again.

  This affects Jaunty, but has also affected Intrepid, Hardy, and
  possibly even further back as well.
