Public bug reported:

GNOME Control Centrer provides a new MIME type (from 2.18, if I'm right)
for theme packages. This MIME type is called application/x-gnome-theme-
package and it matches to a simple .tar.gz file with the extension
changed to .gtp. The XML definition for new MIME is installed as
/usr/share/mime/packages/gnome-theme-package.xml

Now, in a proper installation of gnome-control-center (at least in my
GNOME upstream installation under /opt/ using jhbuild), double clicking
on a .gtp file should install its content in $HOME/.themes and
$HOME/.icons, and should open the Appearance capplet allowing you to
select the newly installed theme.

On Gutsy, when I double click on .gtp theme, it's opened in File Roller,
reporting an error on unknown/unmanaged file type

It seems that both /usr/share/mime/packages/gnome-theme-package.xml (the
MIME type definition) and /usr/share/applications/gnome-theme-
installer.desktop (the MIME<->application association) are propertly
installed, so I've no idea (maybe not updated stuff on upgrade from
Feisty?)
