 There's an error when you try to install a package containing parent and
 couple of child themes using zip package upload from the admin dashboard.

 For example i got a 1 big directory called test_template which contains 1
 folder test_parent and 3 folders test_child1, test_child2, test_child3. If
 i upload test_template directory using ftp everything's ok, but when i try
 to use theme uploader and zip package test_template.zip i get an error
 caused by not finding a style.css file inside of the test_template
 directory ... but when i add a style.css file to that directory
 installation goes fine but templates aren't working till i use ftp and
 delete that file from that directory. It's troublesome if someone is
 giving his templates to other users.
