Title:
  gnome-appearance-properties theme switching behaves oddly

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  Expired
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  Normally on my system, Appearance Properties theme switching works
  just fine. However, for some reason (I don't remember why) I switched
  themes using gtk-theme-switcher2. After I did that gnome-appearance-
  properties will switch the theme, but the GTK elements are not
  switched, resulting in an ugly, unexpected theme clash.

  This seems to be because ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (set by gtk-theme-switcher2)
  overrides what is set in gnome-appearance-properties. While this makes
  sense, it results in weird behavior.

  I assigned this to gnome-appearance-properties because I think it
  should alert the user to the conflict and possibly present the option
  to remove the gtkrc file.
