The Clearlooks and Bluecurve icon directories that were provided under Centos 5 that have disappeared on Centos 6. Clearlooks icons were provided by gnome-themes-2.16.0-1.fc6 and has disappeared with gnome-themes-2.28.1-6.el6.noarch, and Bluecurve icons were provided by redhat-artwork-5.1.0-28.el5.centos, which doesn't appear to exist at all with Centos 6.
Were these icons removed for a reason?
Hello,
I started making my own gnome theme with some of these icons added back. But sadly its not ready to share with anyone yet. But since centos 6 is out I have a renewed incentive to hurry up and finish this theme for myself. (I worked on this with RHEL 6 up until now)
It is a noarch rpm. My theme is more grey then blue though. But it has the old icons... Like for nautilus folders and $HOME and stuff. I'm working on installing a couple of more centos 6 boxes tonight.
I don't think it would be too hard to rename what I have made as bluecurve or clearlooks even though its a modified default theme and mine isn't called that. The trashcan looks different because it has to be a vector drawing instead of a png... Mine is grey. When I finish it I will try to post a url to a repo for people who care about that.
Cheers,
Gary Gatling | ITECS Systems

Please post your replies bellow the original text you are replying to for easier read.
Has anybody looked is SL dev team created those? Also, has anybody tried to rip out those files from C5 and just repack it?

Ljubomir ... PLEASE stop saying whatevr comes into your head on CentOS mailing lists ... this is the CENTOS mailing list
You can look at this as well as anyone else ... and IF SL had done something of this sort, you can use a direct email to the inquiring party to let them know your results
Certain art work may not be present .. but as you SHOULD know, CentOS seeks to be a strict build in most matters. If it is not present upstream at a given revision point, it SHOULD NOT be in CentOS proper. Adding supplemnetal backgrounds art not present in the upstream product is not part of its core mission

Or those running test versions of SL could look and give us info. I did not say anyone should steel anything, just pointing people wanting this more then the rest of us to check for already available rpms on compatible distro. that way they wouldn't have to create their own as they seem to be doing.

Who said anything about adding it to base repository? Doesn't CentOS have Extras repository where additional themes and icons can be added?
