Theming update.php and install.php not possible- Drupal hardcodes them to use Minelli

Drupal hardcodes minelli to be the theme for the update.php and install.php pages. Stupid.

  • Minnelli is always used for the initial install and update operations. In
  • other cases, "settings.php" must have a "maintenance_theme" key set for the
  • $conf variable in order to change the maintenance theme.

    // Install and update pages are treated differently to prevent theming overrides.
    if (defined('MAINTENANCE_MODE') && (MAINTENANCE_MODE == 'install' || MAINTENANCE_MODE == 'update')) {
    $theme = 'minnelli';
    }

But it uses the default theme logo -- which for one theme of mine is huge, intentionally so–– and it covers up everything on those pages.

Stupid.

However, this does mean i can temporarily enable Minnelli, tell it to use its default logo, and then disable it, and my update.php will now function with a usual-sized druplicon.
