Sorry for adding more info to clarify. UserIconSet is deprecated so I guess this functionality is deprecated too... since QIcon::fromTheme() apaprently isn't able to find app icons. I've seen quite a few KDE apps compiling-in their (usually custom action) icons into qrc instead. I've not seen other app that do what Calligra apps do: using icons fron share/calligra/icons (in kdelibs4 times share/apps/calligra/icons).
