All sub-themes (including the pre-built sub-themes Zen Classic, Zen Themer’s Starter Kit) disappered from admin/build/themes theme list after update from 6.x-1.0 to 6.x-1.1, so I can't enable any of them. The only visible theme is Zen. I have tried to remove the 6.x-1.1 and add 6.x-1.0 back, and all sub-themes appeared again. Is this OK? I don't think so.

Zen Classic was removed from the core Zen project. See: #426750: Remove Zen Classic sub theme

If you need Zen Classic, theoretically, you should be able to just move the Zen Classic theme directory from the Zen 1.0 directory into one of your standard theme directories (like sites/all/themes) and it ought to work with Zen 1.1. I haven't actually tested that, though.

The Starter Kit is removed from the list because the .info file in the theme has been renamed to STARTERKIT.info.txt. (This breaks Zenophile, since it uses drupal_get_path('theme', 'STARTERKIT') to find the path to STARTERKIT! Argh.) I'm guessing this is because Starter Kit was not intended to be a standard theme anyway, so it's best to remove it from the theme list.

Actually, the STARTERKIT.info to STARTERKIT.info.txt name change was because of #254821: Sub-theme's .info file triggers incorrect "out of date" flag in update module.

Ouch, sorry about the Zenophile breakage, Garrett!

Oh, yes, you are right - I have renamed the .info.txt file to .info and it's back!
So this is not a bug, this is a feature.
In this case the documentation should be updated:

http://drupal.org/node/226507

3. In your new sub-theme folder, rename the STARTERKIT.info file
...
For example, rename the foo/STARTERKIT.info file to foo/foo.info.

STARTERKIT.info > STARTERKIT.info.txt

I did notice the .info.txt extension, but I did not guess that this could be a reason why the subthemes disappeared.

Thanks for quick response.
