It is the closest I found to an icon. The problem was simple: while building the Debian package, /usr/share/pixmaps/ was not taken into consideration, fixed: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/foo2zjs/trunk/foo2zjs_20090301dfsg/?rev=183&sc=1 Indeed, upstream sources contains both GIF and PNG files: while the latter is for the .desktop file, the former is used in the Tcl program, i.e. /usr/share/foo2zjs/hplj10xx_gui.tcl: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- proc main {w} { global share image create photo icon -file [file join $share hplj1020_icon.gif] frame $w.frame tixBalloon $w.frame.balloon --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The best solution would be to use only one icon format in both the .desktop file and the Tcl program. IMHO the PNG format is the best choice, becasue while I could not find any strict requirement WRT the freedesktop.org specifications, IIRC Debian mandates menu icons to be XPM or PNG, because some WMs do not understand anything other. However, tk8.4 needs an external package (libtk-img) to deal with PNG images, together with the following patch: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- --- hplj10xx_gui.tcl.ORG 2009-04-01 13:25:43.000000000 +0200 +++ hplj10xx_gui.tcl 2009-04-02 14:51:42.000000000 +0200 @@ -1,7 +1,8 @@ #!/usr/bin/wish global share -set share "/usr/share/foo2zjs" +set share "/usr/share/pixmaps" +package require Img proc replaced {name} { exec usb_printerid $name --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- For this latter reason I preferred to simply include two copies of the same icon than adding yet another Debian-specific patch.
