Hi Karl,

Are you using Mythbuntu? If yes then I think you are probably stuck on
version 0.27 of Myth and need to enable the updates on the Mythbuntu
control panel to get 0.27.5 and all should be good.

I'm not aware of anything that would stop the theme working on 0.27
but the script that packages the themes doesn't make it available for
0.27. Not sure if it is my fault or something that needs to be enabled
in the script.
