I had issues installing this in Xubuntu. Running the following helped. Just copy and paste all in the terminal.

echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bgstack15:/Chicago95/xUbuntu_22.04/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:bgstack15:Chicago95.list

sudo apt update
sudo apt install chicago95-theme-all
