LightDM - Feb 2015 - Is it that lightdm-gtk-greeter will not with Xfce-dusk theme? Why?

Hello, after updating my /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf as follows:
theme-name=Xfce-dusk

I don't get to see the desired effect applied.

Why is it so?

Thanks and well met to all lightdm regulars,
Sophoklis

Likely because you're using the gtk3 version of the greeter and Xfce-dusk
doesn't support Gtk3.
Alternatively it could be that you have the theme in a not publicly accessible
folder (e.g. /home/$user/) hence the greeter cannot read it. Or just messed up
file permissions.
