gnome icon theme configuration problem
Last modified: 2005-10-12 16:21:37 UTC
The icons in /opt/gnome/share/icons/theme/hicolor/16x16/stock/emoticons (and maybe some others as well) aren't available to the themable icons API. For an example, run glade-2, create a new GNOME project, create a window, add an image to the window, go to the Properties window, click the "Named Icon" pop-up, and scroll to "stock_smiley-1" (it's about 1/4 of the way down the list, which is is inconveniently not in alphabetical order). The icon shows up as the "broken image" icon. This seems to be an issue with how the hicolor-theme and gnome-icon-theme packages are merged together. /opt/gnome/share/icons/theme/gnome/index.theme says to look in "16x16/stock/emoticons", but that just makes it look in /opt/gnome/share/icons/theme/gnome/16x16/stock/emoticons, not /opt/gnome/share/icons/theme/hicolor/16x16/stock/emoticons where the icons are actually installed. I believe that index.theme is right, and the icons are just being installed in the wrong directory.
Jakkub, Rodney, know what the story is here?
Created attachment 50752 [details] Patch to install icons to proper directory Here's a patch to install the emoticons to the gnome directory instead of hicolor. I've committed this upstream already.
To be clear, this will be fixed in the next gnome-icon-theme tarball release also (2.12.1).
This is assigned to the apparmor component. Moving to the component
Moved to GNOME
Fixed with update to 2.12.1 in STABLE/PLUS.
