I'm pretty sure that analysing the AUR package will clarify how to install the engines.

Yeah, I think I got it. Downloaded a few from Ubuntu, and got them to build and install in Gtk2-NG. But I don't have themes to test all the engines. Here they are:

CODE:

libcleanice.solibclearlooks.solibcrux-engine.solibglide.solibhcengine.solibindustrial.solibmist.solibmoblin-netbook-engine.solibmurrine.solibpixmap.solibredmond95.solibsugar.solibthinice.so

There were countless deprecation errors [...] but I got rid of all of them yesterday

I'm curious what solutions you found for those that I left out (and the others that I allegedly fixed). Will clone your repo again in another folder and compare the files.

Btw, do you have an online repo with your fixes? Or could you do a pull request on our repo maybe?

No repo for this one, I worked completely offline. I've always been a loner although at times I might've briefly hovered around certain individuals or groups. Slow Internet connection and old machines wouldn't help either. Besides, as much as I tried I could never understand how git works other than cloning some repo locally. I have a couple online repos (in my signature below) but I always used the browser interface to upload files, and it's a major PITA. Guess it's my brains' limitation.

Having fallbacks for older versions of glib, pango, pixbuf, etc No extra ram usage, cpu cycles or bigger binaries, when possible.

That's for professionals (like you, probably). I'm just happy to play around, see what I can tinker with, but serious stuff I leave to those who actually know what they're doing.
