Making Numix work on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Ubuntu 18.04's package repos include the Numix Project's gtk theme and icon theme, but these have an undocumented dependency on gnome-icon-theme, which is not installed by default.

So to make Numix work you need to first:

sudo apt install gnome-icon-theme numix-gtk-theme numix-icon-theme

If not already installed, also add (Gnome) Tweak tool:

sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

Then open up Tweaks , go to the Appearance tab, and change:

Themes... Applications to "Numix"

Themes... Icons to "Numix"

That's it!
