Hi, as some of you might know, I am one of the echo-icon-theme developers (among other things I do for Fedora) and we are currently facing issues with icon references in .desktop of most of the system-config-* tools, which renders some of them impossible to replace by icon from theme. I've already filled some bugs, some of which were fixed, to address this issue, also have a wiki-page [1] to track the process. The problems are of two types: 1. the icon reference contains file extension (usually .png). This is not necessary and renders such icon irreplaceable by SVG icon themes. 2. the icon reference contains full path. This makes it unthemable completely. In addition to that, for some of the tools I suggested usage of icon name either directly from icon-naming-specs [2] or at least following their naming scheme. I do not want to push on developers to change the icon name if they don't want to, but it would be nice if they could at least fix the two above mentioned issues. One example patch that fixes and changes the icon name for system-config-firewall is attached to one of the bugzilla bugs [3] I talked about. Alas so far without response from the maintainer. Which packages are affected can be easily checked from the wiki page, but here's a short list: Contain file extension ---------------------- authconfig-gtk system-config-bind system-config-boot system-config-date system-config-display system-config-firewall system-config-httpd system-config-kdump system-config-kickstart system-config-netboot system-config-nfs system-config-samba system-config-services system-config-users system-config-vsftpd Contain full path to icon ------------------------- system-config-cluster system-config-lvm Thanks, Martin References: [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/Icons/Names/SystemAdministration [2] http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html [3] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=454402
