Well, we do have a PackageDB. Why couldn't we permit maintainers to go to: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/packagedb Then, on the page for the package (once logged in, of course), click on the icon next to the package name (a question mark by default) and upload an icon. Then, extend the PackageDB API such that PackageKit tries to call out to PackageDB to get icons on a per package basis (also, as a list of packages). ~spot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
