when I click on the apt url, it says, package zgegblog-themes not working
Guess I need to refresh the package list...
Is there a way to just refresh the packages from the bisigi ppa?

You have to add first the repositories and the verification key before to click the apt:// install

Thanks! I had added the repositories and the verification key. Needed to refresh the package list... somehow, didn't get prompted for the option.
Still, I installed the themes and they are great!
Especially the balanzan theme with the Koala wallpaper

Balanzan is one of the nicest themes that I've ever seen on any DE or OS. Its polished and complete. Usually a theme is weak in one area or another, but this one's awesome. The only thing that would improve it, IMO, would be a GDM theme with a face browser (my kids like clicking on their pictures to log in).



wouldn't add the verification key
