Weird, I was under the impression that to fix the "unowned directory
problem" you had to "just" add "Requires: hicolor-icon-theme" to
the
package shipping the icons.

That is correct.

All my GUI application packages that ship
their own icons do that. Why would that dependency not be necessary?

I think we are misunderstanding each other here.

So the correct method is "Requires: hicolor-icon-theme". The reason I initially understood this differently was this:

1. the guidelines give _filesystem_ and "other explicitly created filesystem packages" the same standing in this phrase: "any directories owned by the filesystem, man, or other explicitly created -filesystem packages"
2. _filesystem_ is not given special treatment anywhere
3. you do not do "Requires: filesystem" to get /usr/bin created

Which sounds like a contrived argument, but really I really was just trying to figure out how it should be done.

I already opened a pull request to clarify this, I have to redo it.
