Anybody want to solve a mystery with a theme override file?
Here is the problem: http://drupal.org/node/563858 has my stumped :(

Hi Hershel,
After copying the templates to a new theme and enabling the new theme, have you tried "flushing" theme registry and other caches? If you install Admin Menu module, you'll find "flush all" on the extreme top left of your site.
Cheers Alex
P.S: I'm copying your post below for easier reference.
I have a D6 site with a theme called ho. It says in the .info file:
description = A fixed-width version of the bluebreeze theme. Not yet ported!
but I don't know where exactly it originally came from, this theme. It has been customized. In the theme is also a directory called bluebreeze-fixed.
Then we have a separate theme called ho-fixed. It also has a subdir called bluebreeze-fixed. But ho-fixed doesn't have any .info file. In its bluebreeze-fixed directory there is a a ho-fixed.info file and the description there shows up on the admin/build/themes page.
The site uses ho for administrative theme and ho-fixed as default theme.
Someone made custom view template files and put them in the ho theme and if we switch the default theme to ho, then it works and the output comes from those files. If we put them in the ho-fixed theme and make that default, then they do not work. If we put them in ho-fixed/bluebreeze-fixed it also doesn't work. Trying to put a ho-fixed.info file in ho-fixed also doesn't seem to work.
In short, nothing I have tried has convinced Drupal to pick up those files. I'm a bit lost as to what the problem is.
Any ideas?

You can also go into "admin/build/views", find the relevant views, and for each display type ('page', 'block' etc), go to information -> scan template files. Don't forget to save. For a good measure, flush all caches after that. And log out and log in.
Sorry to be so brief, I'm very late to go to sleep!! :p

Flushed everything. Repeatedly in fact. :)
You can also go into "admin/build/views", find the relevant views, and for each display type ('page', 'block' etc), go to information -> scan template files. Don't forget to save. For a good measure, flush all caches after that. And log out and log in.
Tried that too. Nothing helps. :(
Thanks.
Try checking if these are "hard-coded" in the settings.php.

Interesting idea, but nope. Furthermore, putting the theme override files in Garland and switching to that theme works.
Thanks.
