Does anyone have a patch that reverts menus appeareance like in previous versions ? They look like before in the Blackbird theme, so I did a quick patch for the gtk2 theme (http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/449072) but I can't figure out how to do it for gtk3.

The Shimmer Project released version 0.9 of Greybird. It introduces Unity-specific additions, and includes some polishing up of the GTK2 and GTK3 themes. The Shimmer Project has moved their wallpapers to a separate GIT repository, which complicates the package building process a bit. If I included both repositories (theme and wallpapers), it would require all wallpapers to download, plus the conflicts with the different GIT repositories is a hassle. So for now, I decided to just wget the specific wallpaper file. I may contact the Shimmer Project and see if they can return to the traditional approach of including the wallpapers in the same repository as each theme. Not only is packaging cleaner, easier, and more organized; but a theme should always have its wallpaper as part of the theme in its entirety. There is no need to separate them. Comment if you have questions, issues, corrections, or suggestions.

Made the fixes to all the PKGBUILDs. Packages still build properly, like before, but hey, a typo's a typo.

@flan_suse Didn't think to check the githubs themselves. My bad. Anyway, according to the Blackbird github, that's dual-licensed too; evidently, your licensing was correct for all four packages. They probably just forgot to add the license files in (seeing as LINCENSE.GPL isn't there either). Anyway, regarding the $srcidr thing, it's just cd'ing to nowhere, since $srcidr would be empty. By default it's already in $startdir (usually - but not always - one directory up from $srcdir) so it dumps everything there. At least everything works out in package() regardless :] Anyway, thanks for packaging this. It's really a complete and nice-looking theme.

@luolimao Nice catch on the typo! I'm curious as to why it doesn't spit out an error in the very first step of the build() process? I will fix that typo in all the PKGBUILDs as soon as I get the chance. Thankfully, the packages have all been working, regardless. As for the licenses, the CCPL applies to the wallpapers, not the code itself. Since Bluebird and Greybird also include wallpapers by the Shimmer Project, I went ahead and assumed they use the same license as for their Albatross wallpaper. If you look in the github repositories, you will see LICENSE.CC in all of their Xfce themes, except for Blackbird. I left CCPL in Blackbird by mistake, but didn't yet update the PKGBUILD. (Not a high priority to require a package rebuild; just a minor technicality.)

I believe there's a typo in the build() section (should be $srcdir, not $srcidr), and the typo is in all the related packages (xfce-theme-{bluebird,blackbird,albatross}) . Also, (minor nitpicking, I know) the Albatross theme does have a double-license (CCPL:cc-by-sa-3.0 and GPL3) but according to the site link, the Bluebird and Greybird themes are GPL3 only (and so would Blackbird, I assume).

The Shimmer Project released version 0.8.2 of Greybird. It includes some minor fixes throughout, as well as a new logout dialogue theme. The logout dialogue is darker and resembles the new (young) Blackbird theme. Thanks to the suggestion of thestinger, I have rewritten this PKGBUILD so that it can be built and rebuilt over and over without any git errors. Check the PKGBUILD if you are curious. Please report any problems. I will hopefully soon make the same changes to my other PKGBUILDs of the Shimmer Project Xfce themes.
