I am currently trying to create a Debian virtual machine using Packer.
Everything is mostly working, but I am stuck on a small problem :
I cannot seem to set a default theme and icon theme in my post-install.sh script.
The post-install script is launched through SSH and I think it is the problem.
The command to change the theme is
dconf write /org/mate/desktop/interface/gtk-theme "'Arc-Dark'"
It works if I type it manually in a terminal when the VM is finished and exported, but it is not what I want.
The only idea I got was
exec su - user (to connect as the user, as the post-install script is executed by root)
and then
dbus-launch dconf write /org/mate/desktop/interface/gtk-theme "'Arc-Dark'"
But infortunately it did not work
If anyone has suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I am missing something very simple.
I am also willing to switch to another desktop environment if themes can be set through the command line easily.
Thank you.
