Bug ID: 443687
Summary: Icons for binary patch files (IPS/BPS/bsdiff)
Product: Breeze
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Icons
Assignee: visual-des...@kde.org
Reporter: xnagyti...@gmail.com
CC: kain...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The mime-info database has some definitions for binary patch file formats that
Breeze currently doesn't support. The first two formats, IPS and BPS are mainly
used to patch video games to avoid legal troubles distributing the original
non-free binaries. Bsdiff is a high-efficiency binary patcher.
They could be supported with minimal effort by symlinking them to the
text/x-patch icon. The merge symbol on that existing icon would work perfectly
for binary patches as well. If you think plaintext and binary patch files needs
some differentiation, text/x-patch could be color swapped.
Affected MIME types:
application/x-ips-patch
application/x-bps-patch
application/x-bsdiff
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
