Do you have a directory named ".themes" in your home directory?  Note that
under Unix, file and directory names beginning with a dot (.) are normally
hidden.  You'll need to run "ls -la" or "ls -ld .themes" to see it.

Also, what does "tar -tvf ...." show, when you replace "...." with the
name of the theme package?
