Zukitwo, a beautiful theme designed for GNOME 3.12 that makes use of the GTK2 engine Murrine and the GTK2 pixbuf engine, has received an update that fixes a couple of issues.

The Zukitwo theme was one of the first to get GNOME 3.12 support, shortly after the launch of the new desktop environment. This theme only works with GNOME Shell 3.12 and GTK+ 3.12, which means that it might create problems on other systems.

According to the changelog, the progress bar has been corrected and the button border is now better focused. This should make the buttons much more visible.

The developer doesn’t provide any binary files for the theme, only the source package. This means that you will have to manually copy the files in the appropriate folder. You can activate the theme by using an application like GNOME Tweak Tool.

Some of the issues that have been noted in the past by the designers seem to have been fixed, and only one issue remains. The IDE software Eclipse/Aptana may have some strange color bugs, but they're not present on all systems.

The theme has two requirements: GTK2 engine Murrine 0.98.1.1 or later and GTK2 pixbuf engine or the gtk(2)-engines package.
