Move skel/.fonts to skel/.local/share/fonts? about bunsen-configs HOT 7 CLOSED

May as well sort it out now, so we all get used to it.

I guess when giving advice you just say "Copy your downloaded font into ~/.local/share/fonts (create the directory if it doesn't already exist)"

OK let's be kind and create an empty directory there.

...in fact, it looks as if icons and themes should now be in ~/.local/share/ also.

Since they're all empty when we ship BL we might as well put them in the approved place from the start I guess. It makes the HOME directory a bit cleaner.

^ I was just checking the situation with .icons and .themes myself :)

Yes, let's have empty dirs there.

I thought it was just the gtk3 index file that should go in ~/.local/share/themes, the rest of the theme stays in ~/.themes (if not in /usr/share/themes).

Anyway, +1 on the font relocation, I was just thinking this yesterday when installing some fonts.

That doesn't sound right somehow. eg XFCE wiki
I'll move one of my personal theme folders from ~/.themes to ~/.local/share/themes and check if it still gets recognized OK.

Anyway these are just empty directories for user-installed stuff, /usr/share/themes stays the same.

From my looks of my latest fresh install, this has all been fixed now via symlinks. Yes?

from bunsen-configs.

Yes. Some apps were slow to adapt to the new locations, so symlinks were needed too. Maybe in the future they can be removed.
