Public bug reported: I just installed Maverick 10.10 AMD64 Desktop. After the first boot everything looked great.
I then setup my typical environment, which basically includes installing a bunch of packages. I didn't change any Appearance options at all. After rebooting, my theme is now a very boring and ugly one (I believe the Gnome default). I cannot change it back to Ambiance in Appearance settings. If I create a new non-admin user, he has Ambiance. If I create an admin user, he has the crappy theme. I'd be happy to provide more information or try anything to make my desktop less ugly.
