[Bug 1296281] Re: poor choice for browser icon

 

excuse me, but how hard is it to change this?  The arguments given are
all obviously false.

First, I was told that the icon has been this way for a LOOOOOONNNNGGGG
time.  Well, the answer to exactly how long is still outstanding.  It's
not been longer than the last LTS as far as I can see.  Then, I'm being
told that the theme is no longer under active development.  Well,
rmadison tells me that the package has seen a new release in EVERY
Ubuntu release all the way back to lucid.  Then I'm being told to remove
symlinks that don't even exist.

So, to summarize again.  I think it's a bad idea to include a pointer in
that picture.  What's so incredibly impossible to just remove it and
have a better experience for everyone?

Title:
  poor choice for browser icon

Status in “humanity-icon-theme” package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  I am not sure this icon is indeed from unity or one of the separate
  packages but I found the trusty icon for the browser a poor choice
  (see attachment).  The pointer that is included is easy to mistake for
  the system pointer and thus confuse the user.  Please reconsider this.
