[SOLVED] Themes dissapeared after dist-upgrade

Hi folks, sorry if I'm making such a noobish question here, but I can't seem to find the proper wording to research the problem myself.
The thing is, I've added a a non-free repo and then did apt-get update and subsequently dist-upgrade.

This is my sources.list (the two first lines are the ones newly added):

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian jessie main

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib 
# deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib 

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free 
# deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free 

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free 
# deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free 

# Debian Jessie (stable) Firefox ESR 52
# deb http://mozilla.debian.net/ jessie-backports firefox-esr 
# deb https://dl.bintray.com/tizonia/debian/ {distribution} {components}  

deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ jessie main

Next time I rebooted I found that some of my dotfiles were ignored (ie: nitrogen, MOC and lxappearance themes).

In the particular case of lxappearance (which I use to manage Openbox themes, as usual) only shows Raleigh and Clearlooks themes although the other BunsenLabs themes are still in /usr/share/themes.
This is the first time this happens to me, I don't know what's the thing to do in this scenario.

Re: [SOLVED] Themes dissapeared after dist-upgrade

You have mixed stable and jessie (now old-stable) sources, so you have upgraded a bunch of stuff to stretch. This means that many of the themes are broken by the gtk upgrade. This is why it may be advisable to specify the release in your sources, not "stable".

Uninstall bunsen-themes, change your sources to stretch (stable), update/upgrade and cross your fingers. Reinstall the theme package afterwards from our development repo: post

BTW lxappearance doesn't manage the Openbox theme (obconf does that), but the gtk themes.
