Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Normally on my system, Appearance Properties theme switching works just
fine. However, for some reason (I don't remember why) I switched themes
using gtk-theme-switcher2. After I did that gnome-appearance-properties
will switch the theme, but the GTK elements are not switched, resulting
in an ugly, unexpected theme clash.

This seems to be because ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (set by gtk-theme-switcher2)
overrides what is set in gnome-appearance-properties. While this makes
sense, it results in weird behavior.

I assigned this to gnome-appearance-properties because I think it should
alert the user to the conflict and possibly present the option to remove
the gtkrc file.
