To follow up on this I have done some quick refactoring of recipes/xfce-base/xfwm4-themes_4.6.0.bb and published the results to my tree at http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openembedded.git;a=shortlog; h=op.openembedded.dev (Your already familiar with the OP trees so I assume you will have no issues cherry picking off the commit). The package now packs up all 80+ :-o XFWM4 extra themes correctly and also creates a xfwm4-themes meta package that depends on all the themes. This means that you can now add any one of the 80 odd themes to your image explicitly or (better) just add xfwm4-themes to your image to have it drag in every extra theme that is not part of the xfwm4 core package. If you could test this and report back I would appreciate it, assuming all looks ok I'll request this patch is pushed into OE mainline. Regards, John
