See #499439 for the missing icon issue it created. I don't think we have any GNOME icon theme for non-GNOME users, and beside: what would you include in such an icon theme anyway? It doesn't make any sense to me. gcalctool is a GNOME app and relies on the icon theme. It's unfortunate that this pulls the whole icon theme for non-GNOME users, but then it's the correct thing to do. An equivalent replacement icon theme would pull as data, wouldn't it? -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
