Comment (by hnyman):
The theme is not included in the main default config file. Instead, it is
added via a uci-defaults script, which makes it vulnerable in some
scenarios:
* firmware upgrade scenarios that include restoring settings from backup
after reboot.
* You manually install luci, start uhttpd, but do NOT reboot the router,
so nothings runs the uci-defaults script. Installed default config
includes no theme, yet, so Luci hangsto that assertation. Reboot will help
as the uci-defaults should then run once and theme will get inserted into
the config. (Sounds like this happened to op.)
Uci-defaults script is located at the theme:
http://luci.subsignal.org/trac/browser/luci/trunk/themes/bootstrap/root/etc
/uci-defaults/luci-theme-bootstrap
I wrote a Luci ticket about this ~10 months ago after having been locked
out of my Luci GUI due to this issue.

Regarding forthcoming BB release, I think it would be better to have the
current default theme included in the default config. That would ease
upgrading from older versions.
