What about disabling all themes when using the option "--without-theme".
It is the same as "--with-theme=no".

In each case, we should make sure that some theme is used if you do not
use this option at all. Most builders want some icon theme and we should
not force them using this option everytime ;-)

I am sorry, I do not have time to investigate. Does it fail in
postprocess or in instsettoo_native? If it fails in instsetto_native,
you might want to look into the scp2 module. It defines what files are
needed during installation. You might need to add some extra #ifdefs
around the icons.

If it fails in postprocess, it might really need some tweaking of the
scripts and makefiles.
