Confirmed ... sort of.

This error (for me) occurs if the theme has already been installed.

I was looking at the following themes from: http://www.junauza.com/2008/08/10-beautiful-themes-for-ubuntu-intrepid.html

I downloaded the first three.

Steps to reproduce.
 1. System --> Preferences --> Appearance
 2. Theme Tab
 3. Click the "Install ..." button and open up the appropriate theme file (or drag the tar.bz2 file into the window).
 4. At first, it says the theme was installed. (but the theme doesn't show up in the list!)
 5. Try to install again, the error in subject line above is displayed. (Can't move directory over directory)

manzur, what happens if you try a NEW theme? (Wondering if maybe the theme you're trying to install was somehow already installed, and so you're experiencing the same thing as I am in reality?)
