I really like the Nodoka theme from Fedora.
I wrote a small script to do that. You need to have libsexy-dev installed. If not, just run this command in your terminal:

sudo apt-get --assume-yes --force-yes install libsexy-dev

Here is the script:


#!/bin/bash
cd $HOME/Desktop
w3m https://fedorahosted.org/nodoka/wiki > page
daemon=`cat page | grep notification |cut -f1 -d" "`
theme=`cat page | grep nodoka-theme |cut -f1 -d" "`
engine=`cat page | grep gtk-nodoka-engine |cut -f1 -d" "`
wget https://fedorahosted.org/releases/n/o/nodoka/$daemon
wget https://fedorahosted.org/releases/n/o/nodoka/$theme
wget https://fedorahosted.org/releases/n/o/nodoka/$engine
tar zxvf $engine
cd gtk-nodoka-engine-*
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-animation
make
sudo make install
cd ..
tar zxvf $theme
cd nodoka-theme-gnome-*
sudo cp -rv Nodoka/ /usr/share/themes/
cd ..
tar zxvf $daemon
cd notification-daemon-engine-nodoka-*
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
cd ..
cd $HOME/Desktop
rm $daemon
rm $theme
rm $engine
rm page
rm -rf gtk-nodoka-engine-*
rm -rf nodoka-theme-gnome-*
rm -rf notification-daemon-engine-nodoka-*


Enjoy!

Installed without any hitch. However,


The theme will not look as intended because the required icon theme 'Fedora' is not installed.

So how to get this Fedora icon theme installed in Ubuntu?

I found the answer thanks to Ubuntu unleashed web site

6. Grab the echo icon set & install it
wget http://ubuntu-debs.googlecode.com/files/echoicons.tar.gz
tar zxvf echoicons.tar.gz
sudo cp -R Echo /usr/share/icons/

Use theme

Click System → Preferences → Theme menu command. In Theme Preferences dialog, choose Nodoka item. Also click on the customize tab then click on icons and select "Echo"

Cant you just use the .deb installer?

This one lists the one for gutsy, but it works fine in later versions.
But I think its only for i386.

Here is the link to the Tarball for the Fedora Icon Theme. Ripped directly from the Fedora 11 Live CD and uploaded by me: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zxkbztcwd7l

How do you install the icon theme?
You go to the menu (or menu bar), click System-->Preferences-->Appearance. Now drag the tarball into the theme manager.
