GDM accent color blue instead of Manjaro green

[DanyGee]

GDM accent color has changed to blue after latest updates.
Is this a global inconsistency?

System:
Kernel: 6.1.60-1-MANJARO arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 13.2.1
Desktop: GNOME v: 45.0 Distro: Manjaro Linux base: Arch Linux

GNOME v: 45.0

Gnome probably changed something …

Revert Green Theme

I only asked because I thought you had just installed it. Install gnome-shell-extension-custom-accent-colors and choose the Maia accent color. Note that you’ll need to restart GNOME Shell / logout after installing the extension and after changing the accent color. If you want the Maia accent color on the login / lock screen (GDM), install gnome-shell-maia.

Can someone check if it is a global inconsistency?
(Do you also have the same issue or is it something local on my side?)
Many THX in advance!

We have removed ¹ gnome-shell-maia which compiled GNOME Shell with the Maia accent color. That is the only way to change the accent color in GDM. It ended up causing more problems than it solved.

If one changes the accent color with Custom Accent Colors or Gradience, it will not be able to change the shell theme with gnome-shell-maia installed.
