> The only themes that have the internet-mail icon at all in the 14.04 b1 default install are elementary-xfce and HighContrast. The other themes lack this icon and will trigger the bug as described above.
Yes, in fact if you look closely, the gnome-icon-theme has dropped *all* symlinks upstream and I have the feeling that gnome-icon-theme-full has been more comprehensive in Ubuntu in the past. So this is new behavior of icon-themes. To quote another widespread example, Faenza still has this icon. I guess it would be okayish as a workaround for exo to ship at least one icon per default app category. But in general I think it's best to stick to standards, i.e. choosing a standard icon name (if one exists in the freedesktop.org icon spec) would be preferred imo. Note: If exo ships an icon for this, it would put it in /usr/share/icons/hicolor ideally, not in pixmaps. (The short explanation is that the pixmap folder doesn't support multiple icon-sizes.) Summing up: I consider this an upstream bug, but in Xubuntu the behavior is actually fine. Our default icon-theme supports the icon and we ship it, to some extent this is all we can do. The rest should be handled upstream (a Xubuntu-specific patch is not desirable in my opinion). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1293305 Title: Several icon themes lack an "internet-mail" icon, causing it to go missing from the XFCE menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exo/+bug/1293305/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
