Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dmz-cursor-theme
When I go to System->Preferences->Appearance, then click "Customize" and
choose a different pointer theme, the new pointer theme only applies to
some cursors (such as the beam cursor) while the primary pointer arrow
remains the default cursor.
If I install some other cursor theme - for example the Oxygen cursor
theme or the moblin cursor theme, then the default pointer from that
theme takes over as the default pointer and again cannot be changed
using Appearance Preferences.
Apparently whatever theme /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme points to
provides the default pointer and there's nothing a user can do about it
except change the system's x-cursor-theme setting.
