(Note: With this transformation pack we are targeting multiple desktops for Macbuntu transformation, MacBuntu pack is compatible with Unity, Gnome Shell, Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce. Link to previous MacBuntu versions are also linked below for previous Ubuntu releases)


MacBuntu (Macbuntu Yosemite/El Capitan) transformation pack is ready for Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial. This pack contains themes for GTK (which supports: Unity, Gnome, Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce two themes dark & light for Gnome Shell, two themes for Cinnamon, two icon packs, cursors. There are some issues with 16.04 where it make some parts of the pack useless: 1) boot/splash we do not recommend you to install boot screen because there is a known bug for plymouth but we are still sharing, if you want to give it a shot; 2) Login screen, it is only offered for Ubuntu Unity and Ubuntu Gnome users but if you have multiple desktops then you can't choose and another known problem, if you remove lightdm-webkit then you will have blank screen, to solve this issue you have to install other display manager, so better to not install it. 3) Slingscold which is known as launchpad, it does work on some desktops but it may don't work for some users and you may see blank launcher.
Themes used in this pack contains some parts from other sources credit also goes to these guys dark and other icon theme Mine, some code from white) and Jared from Ravefinity helped us in making of this transformation pack by fixing bugs in themes. In this pack we are offering Plank dock themes because it works without any issue unlike other docks. By following these instructions you can change look of your Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial to look like Mac. In previous packs we used LightDM webkit theme which looks quite similar to Mac OS X login screen, this time we are offering again but you have to install it on your own risk because we experienced a lot of issues after installing it (like: not able to login/blank screen).
