+
+- GTK 3.6
+- The package gnome-themes-standard installed. (Usually installed by default in most distros.)
+- The Murrine GTK2 engine 0.98.1.1 or later. (Package name varies between distributions. This engine should be installed by default in Ubuntu.)
+- The Pixbuf GTK2 engine (Package name varies between distributions. This engine should be installed by default in Ubuntu. In arch, fedora and some other non-debian distributions it's included in the gtk2-engines or gtk-engines package. In Debian based distros it's called gtk2-engines-pixbuf.)
+- gnome-tweak-tool (If you're using Gnome 3.)
+- Gnome-shell-extension-user-theme (To enable 3rd party themes in gnome-shell.)
