The bug is still current. I tested it in Mageia-5-beta2-i586. I build a rpm from smplayer-14.9.0.6690 and it works properly after I copy the themes from . I did notice that the current mga version installs themes as rcc files but smplayer-skins-20121029.tar.bz2 has them in png form. Is that likely to have a bearing?

Comment 2 Rémi Verschelde 2015-02-09 10:45:39 CET 
The reason seems to be that smplayer skins are simply not packaged for Mageia. The smplayer-themes package contains icon themes, skins should be in a smplayer-skins package (following the same logic as the upstream distribution on https://sourceforge.net/projects/smplayer/files/ ).

I'll package smplayer-skins and see if it does the trick.
Comment 3 Rémi Verschelde 2015-02-09 10:58:26 CET 
Yep, that was the issue.

You'll now find smplayer-skins 14.9.0 in Cauldron [1], and the main smplayer package "recommends" the skin set [2] (i.e. it gets pulled in with smplayer unless you explicitly say that you don't want recommended packages with "--no-recommends
