I bought a new PC (well, used) so I couldn't wait for the new bl release and went with a debian netinstall.
I ended up copying the contents of my /usr/share/themes to the new pc just to make sure that everything was the same. And, for some of the themes, such as BL-Lithium-light, everything does indeed look the same.
Not so for Bunsen-He, Bunsen-He-flatish, RainForest, Crocus-Remix and others.
Here's Bunsen-He-flatish, bl lithium vs debian bullseye:
Buttons, tabs, check-boxes, these pulley things, all look archaic.
I have also migrated the .config/gtk-2 and .gtk-3 folders. What's missing?
While we are at it: in my gtk-styled zimwiki's editor, line height (the space between lines) seems smaller. I don't think I've touched even the font size. Any clues?
P.S. In case you noticed the slight background color difference: I might have accidentally taken a screenshot of bunsen-He instead of bunse-He flatish. Nevermind that, the widgets are different in the same way.

Oups. Of note is that these ugly widgets only seem to appear in lxappearance, not in my other gtk apps. Could this be a gtk2 vs 3 thing? I'll try and reboot for good measure.

Hm, no gtk-2 app easily comes to mind to test this. I don't really care anyway, I use those so seldom that I don't care how they look.
I would appreciate an answer though. What did I fail to migrate?
Also, any clue about zim?

Huh, Kinda looks like it is failing to apply font tinting and anti aliasing rather than the theme itself? Interesting.

If I'm not mistaken, 'gtk2-engines-murrine' needs to be installed?

IIRC lxappearance has a gtk3 port, but in Debian is only gtk2. The fallback theme there (Rayleigh) looks like gtk2, as gtk3 would fall back to adwaita. You need to ensure that the target system has all required gtk2 engines installed.
sudo apt-get install 'gtk2-engines*'
should do the trick and install all gtk2 engines for maximum compatibility.

I think using that glob pulls in KDE libs as well as there's gtk2-engines-oxygen and gtk2-engines-qtcurve, which might not be what you want. So gtk2-engines-murrine is a good start at least.

sudo apt-get install 'gtk2-engines*' --no-install-recommends
instead of 115 there were only 10 packages

Oh didn't realize that...and that one works. Forgot about the --no-install-recommends switch which is a good idea to not pull in the cruft you do not really need.
