magento2: [Magento 2.0.2] Custom theme not showing in admin

Hello, I was working previously on Magento 2.0.0 and I successfully installed a custom theme by following the Magento doc. Because of the upgrade bugs I had to do a fresh install of magento 2.0.2. But now I can’t install my custom theme. I just copied all the files I had on app/design/frontend/Linescort/beret-theme but the theme is not showing on the admin panel. My structure is like so :

app/design/frontend/Linescort/beret-theme
-------- etc
------------- view.xml
-------- i18n
-------- media
-------- web
-------- registration.php
-------- theme.xml

theme.xml

<theme xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Config/etc/theme.xsd">
    <title>Thème Béret Français</title> <!-- your theme's name -->
    <parent>Magento/blank</parent> <!-- the parent theme, in case your theme inherits from an existing theme -->

</theme>

registraton.php

<?php
/**
 * Copyright © 2015 Magento. All rights reserved.
 * See COPYING.txt for license details.
 */
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::THEME,
    'frontend/Linescort/beret-theme',
    __DIR__
);
?>

I don’t have a composer.json, I didn’t need one with Magento 2.0.0 and even with one, it doesn’t work anyway. Permissions on the folder /Linescort are 755 I empied the cache, re-deploy but nothing worked.

Is this a bug or did i forget something?

Thank you for your help Regards

Have you try bin/magento setup:upgrade ?

I managed to find a workaround. I upgraded my previous 2.0.0 install with the vendor folder of a 2.0.2 install, did a setup:upgrade and composer update and it worked. It’s a shame that magento doc is vague about this way to upgrade, " replace magento code base" is not a proper way to explain how to proceed for new users. They should be more specific.
