mytheme-child does not work when installing a new blog

[minimarket]

If I choose own theme when installing a blog

define ('WP_DEFAULT_THEME', 'mytheme');

then it works, but if I choose child theme

define ('WP_DEFAULT_THEME', 'mytheme-child');

then I must go to Appearance -> Themes to choose it manually. She was not taken up automatically.

Source reference for those interested: populate_options()

Depending on the state of the loading at that point in time, we could query for the theme through get_themes() and extract the template from there, Alternatively, we could add a new define for the Template if we're unable to query at that point in time.

get_themes() works fine there.

Replying to SergeyBiryukov:

get_themes() works fine there.

Thank you! The patch is really working fine.
