I would like to get a window theme that is listed on the link below, but is not installed in Xubuntu 13.04. I have It installed in
Debian Wheezy Xfce 4.x and see it listed as being in Arch linux Xfce 4.x.
The theme is this one:
/usr/share/themes/Xfce-b5/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
Listed for Xubuntu 13.04 here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/amd64/gtk3-engines-xfce/filelist
I can't find it on these links, but then again I don't know what I am doing:
http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/install_new_themes
Does anyone know what I can do?
Thanks.

Its part of the xfwm4-themes package which isn't installed by default. Looks like its a window-manager theme only.

Thanks, for looking Toz.
I wonder why it is listed in the list, but not installed:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/am...-xfce/filelist (http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/amd64/gtk3-engines-xfce/filelist)
Does anyone have any idea where I could get it?
Thanks.

If you're referring to the b5 window manager theme, then install the xfwm4-themes package. From the command line:
sudo apt-get install xfwm4-themes

If you are referring to Appearance theme (/usr/share/themes/Xfce-b5/gtk-3.0/gtk.css), then it can be installed via:
sudo apt-get install gtk3-engines-xfce
There is also a gtk2 version of the appearance theme in the gtk2 engine:
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-xfce

That did it. Yay! We we again!
If you have any patience left with me Toz, could you provide me with a link, to read on installing, all the various Xfce themes with apt-get install:
Window decorations
GTK+ interfaces
Cursors
Notifications
Icons
It was really bugging me that Debian Wheezy Xfce could be configured to how I wanted it, but not Xubuntu 13.04.
Thanks again.
;p

The Xfce wiki (http://wiki.xfce.org/) might be a good place to start - especially the HowTo (http://wiki.xfce.org/howto) and Tips & Tricks (http://wiki.xfce.org/tips) sections.
There is also the Xfce documentation (http://docs.xfce.org/).
Basic information about themes, cursors, icons are talked about here (http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/install_new_themes).
There is also this forum, so don't be afraid to ask away. There is alot of Xfce knowledge here.
