[Bug 1475174] [NEW] Unity launcher badges too small for smaller icons

 

Public bug reported:

If, using unity-tweak, you drop the size of launcher icons down to a
smaller size - say 32px - the badges that count things like unread
messages are too small.

This has been a bug since 14.04 and persists through 15.04.

There should be a minimum size for badges so that they are always
readable.
