Description
I have Haiku nightly (lastest as of writing) running in VirtualBox. I have downloaded the ThemeManager Program along with the flatlook themes. When trying to apply the MoonFlat theme the system crashes. See attached screenshot for backtrace output.

This is happening because the theme loads a version of the flat Decorator which isn't the good one.
In addition of the themes, the flatstyle package contains versions of flat Decorator and ControlLook compiled for beta2. But, on nightlies, flat Decorator and ControlLook are now included in the haiku_extras package which contains the most recent versions of them. To add to the mix, themes are looking for the flat Decorator in /boot/home/config/non-packaged/add-ons/decorators.
How to fix it then?
After that themes will use haiku_extras version of the flat Decorator in /boot/system/add-ons/decorators folder and so will take advantage of updates made to that package.
Please tell us if it helped.
