People are aware of the issue that has recently arisen?
Yeah, so the TL;DR here is adwaita-icon-theme has removed a bunch of
color icons. GNOME applications should for the most part only be using
symbolic icons, so it's probably not very disruptive for GNOME apps,
but it could be very disruptive for third-party apps that don't follow
our guidelines. I will avoid expressing an opinion on whether removing
icons that applications depend on is a good thing to do.
Recommendation: Third-party applications should limit themselves to
depending on standard icon names listed at
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html
only. All other icons should be installed by your app to guarantee that
they don't disappear out from under you.
gnome-icon-theme is just an obsolete, older version of
adwaita-icon-theme. Installing it is not recommended, but it is still
hanging around in Fedora in case you need it.
