XPM is an old standard for icons used by a very small number of desktop packages in Fedora. The XPM icons are normally small, mostly 8 bit, and usually without an alpha channel and look very bad in the software center. I'm going to propose for F21 that we drop support for XPM in the metadata extractor and only show apps with GIF, PNG and SVG icons. The list of affected GUI applications is here: TeXmacs cycle flamerobin gnurobots linsmith mup pari-gp pgadmin3 qtel qucs xsensors As usual, I'd like to push packagers to get upstream to ship a more modern (and high resolution, *with* alpha channel) icon in PNG or SVG format, but packagers can also just replace the icon referenced in the .desktop file if upstream is unwilling / dead and a good replacement is available.
