None of themes are applied

[rulet]

I putted some .conf files of themes into ~/.config/geany/colorschemes, but none of them is applied. I see only this null http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21108895/64.png.
It's on Debian wheezy testing 32bit, Geany 1.22.

Which .conf files did you get and from where (specifically)? One thing to check is that is there's no filetypes.* files from older (pre-1.22) Geany versions in ~/.config/geany/filedefs/ or in INSTALL_PREFIX/share/geany/. It looks like what happens when filetypes.common is from wrong version as a guess.

BTW, I'm pretty sure the "(null)" is just because the color schemes descriptions aren't translated (yet) for non-English, but file format and code supports it, so it tries to read locale version and it's non-existent (NULL).

[codebrainz]

Actually looking closer, maybe the "(null)" is not translation issue but that the file is empty, because also the name is wrongly showing filename instead of proper title of the color scheme and Geany's built-in color schemes show in English and use the same format. I'd check inside those .conf files to make sure they are valid (ie. not empty) and contain what looks like the ones here on Github (or just re-download/install them).

The conf files are not empty, I took them from github. The locale of a system is Russian - UKRAINE (UA) (ru_UA)

Can you paste here the text from "Help->Debug Messages" after you have chosen a color scheme that doesn't work. It should have some useful warnings/errors in there.

Also, does the Alternate (alt.conf) scheme that comes with Geany work alright?

I wasn't at a computer a week...
:)) I've got why the themes is not applied -- because I save .conf files in browser "save as..." and they were saving as html-file as the whole web-page.

I have the same issue with the theme being applied; I haven't dug in the code, but the instructions are outdated.

I fixed it by finding out where my system installed Geany.

For Ubuntu 22.04 (PopOS!)

Everything else works 🎉
