Hi all, as i was talking today with Ivan on irc, there could be a problem in having air as default theme now, since is the fallback theme too, many existing (and incomplete) themes that relied on many elements to be the fallback ones now have the air elements, a thing that could quite break their look.
there are few possible solutions: a) not caring, be a bad boys and just require the themes to be complete (ok, not a solution this one :p) b)mantain oxygen as "default" and just load air instead of oxygen at kde startup c)have a fallbackTo=foo entry in themes desktop files making possible for themes to fallback to a desired theme (maybe kinda overkill and what happens when a 3rd party theme falls back to another 3rd party theme? or what happens when a theme falls back to an incomplete theme?) soo, if we just make the default as air every time the default theme will change the same pain will repeat, if we keep oxygen as the fallback theme we are condemned to keep it complete for ever (that sounds sensible anyways) but will be less painful for old themes even if someday another new default theme will be provided...
