I think he is speaking about already compiled RPMs and a way to tell
Gtk+ where to look for themes (which are not from RPMs, I guess). As
solution, install and then symlink in where Gtk+ searchs. I have my
config that way, in the worst case I just have to rebuild symlinks
from some /usr dirs to some /usr/local dirs.

Well, just guessing, he could explain better.
