I changed the code[1] to show the the location that gbrainy is trying to
load if the themes definition file is not found.

Thanks a lot for your work

One think that is very important is that you build the package from an
official released tag:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gbrainy/refs/tags

Currently "GBRAINY_2_0_0" is the last one.

In the past, Fedora was distributing versions of gbrainy that were still
in development, with known bugs and partial translations.

For these reasons, please build from a released tag.

Thanks!

Jordi,
