Title:
inode-directory.svg/.png files break other icon themes
Status in GNOME Icon Theme:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-icon-theme package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-icon-theme
The latest release of GNOME 2.24 now includes inode-directory.svg /
.png links that break other icon themes that inherit from gnome-icon-
theme.
When using an icon theme which inherits from gnome, but does not
include an inode-directory icon (which includes the majority of icon
themes) the default gnome folder icon will appear instead of the
current icon set's folder icon. This happens most notably in the
places menu of gnome-panel, and was an issue for the Human icon theme
in the Intrepid alphas.
While the Human icon theme solved this issue by adding an inode-
directory.svg file of their own, the mere use of that file itself
causes many regressions. For example, when drag n' dropping into
folders, you will not see the folder change to an open/receiving
folder. Also, in nautilus' non-browser mode (fedora style), visiting
folder icons will not work either.
I suggest that the Ubuntu team would remove the inode-directory svg
and png files from gnome-icon theme in order to make Ubuntu more
compatible with other icon themes, and to fix any other regression
that may occur due to including those files (there is a reason
previous GNOME releases did not include it). Or at the very least, to
communicate this issue upstream so it can be fixed in future releases.
