color-theme not behaving as expected about emacs24-starter-kit HOT 4 CLOSED

Replacing color-theme.el with the one from 6.6.0 (official src) gets rid of the error, but not the issue. 6.6.1 (elpa) has no definition for color-theme-initialize but the function is still called elsewhere in color-theme.el. Though the error is gone, the color-theme-select buffer produced is empty, save for two lines [Reset] and [Quit] at the top.

why was this issue closed? I'm still having this issue -- what was the resolution?

I don't recall what I did now, but I think either of these two solutions should work:

1. Use the official source instead of the ELPA package (uninstall the package), or
2. Diff and merge the ELPA package and the official source.

Additionally, it should be closed because it was found to be an issue with either ELPA or with color-theme, not with emacs24-starter-kit.

@pchalasani You may wish to try the new customize-themes function in Emacs 24. I converted a few themes from the color-theme files to the new format by hand. You can see list of user-submitted themes to download, as well.
