Bug ID: 449224
Summary: Freedesktop Icons are only searched for in /usr and
not /usr/local
Product: kwin
Version: 5.23.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: decorations
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: j...@redstrate.com

symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
Please move this to the correct category if this is wrong :-)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a scalable svg or bitmap and place it in
/usr/local/share/icons/hicolor/{scalable, 32x32, etc}
2. Launch a program with a .desktop file specifying the name of that icon
3. The icon is shown in the task manager widget correctly, but not in the
actual window decoration
OBSERVED RESULT
It's sort of a "blank file" or "not found" icon instead of the actual app icon.
EXPECTED RESULT
The actual app icon.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: N/A
macOS: N/A
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 35
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.89.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I found this while trying to fix PolyMC's icon bugginess while running it
Wayland native, and surprised to find this bug! Now, moving the icon file and
installing it in /usr is fine, but it's even weirder that the task manager is
able to pick it up correctly and not the window decoration (which means the
problem isnt the app itself).
