Synaptic and gtk theme


Hi,
I'm using fluxbox and I don't want to install gnome or kde... I'm svitching GTK themes with gtk-theme-switch and I'd like to know why Synaptic doesn't use default GTK/GTK2 theme? How can I change Synaptic theme without installing GNOME?
And also how can I change GTK icons without installing GNOME?

Thanks in advance.

apt-cache search gtk

lol, nevermind. I found it out.
I forgot that I'm entering root mode when running Synaptic.
All I had to do, was to set the correct theme for root. )

But I have another question... how can I change which iconset will be used for GTK apps without installing GNOME?

If running an app as root, be it KDE or GNOME, it uses roots theme. As for icons, thats something I'd like to know as well.
