[nolsen42]

paper-gtk-theme isn't seen in the repos on Ubuntu 16.10, while paper-cursor-theme and paper-icon-theme is found.

sudo apt install paper-gtk-theme

E: Unable to locate package paper-gtk-theme

apt-cache doesn't see paper-gtk-theme either.

how can i solve this?

[bashfulrobot]

I installed the DEB file directly and then also tried doing a glob install of all paper theme items - it seemed to see it after that (to a degree).

$ sudo apt-get install paper-*-theme

paper-gtk-theme is already the newest version (2.1+r265~daily~ubuntu16.04.1).

I can manually install paper-gtk-theme for 16.04 on my Ubuntu 16.10. No error.

I think the PPA just missed a properly named / placed deb.

@yookoala Manual installation from the website works fine, except I don't think anyone would want to keep going to the website just to get a fresh copy of paper-gtk-theme.

Same issue here on Ubuntu GNOME 16.10.

Same issue on Ubuntu 16.10 I installed it with PPA. I got a paper-icon-theme and a paper-cursor-theme. But paper-gtk-theme was not within them.

Still the case at this date. (25/01/17) gtk theme is still not in PPA

indicator-multiload refuses to start with paper theme, but works for example with arc-theme.
