It looks like what you've written above is +actually a "face specification", which uses a bunch of conditions (the +,class part) to determine which of several potential faces to assign +to the variable (though you listed only one face for each variable, so +I'm not sure why you have a condition). It's unfortunate that Emacs +distinguishes faces and face specification, but that's how it is. + +`notmuch-search-line-faces' is *not* a face variable like +`gnus-group-news-1'. It's an association list that maps tags to +faces. As such, it won't work if your theme is trying to treat it +like a face variable, since its value is not a face, but rather a data +structure that has faces in it.
