Description:

The icon specified in the .desktop file does not show although it is present in the hicolor. For some reason, Viewnior thinks the icons are in /usr/local/ instead of /usr/.

Steps to reproduce:

Install Viewnior from community.
Look at Viewnior desktop file or go to Viewnior's about dialog, the red V icon will not be there.

Solution:

If I manually compile Viewnior using ./configure --prefix=/usr, then the icon will show normally. Viewnior's PKGBUILD has the same command though I don't know what causes the difference.
This task depends upon

It is strange, I have installed it from community - it shows red V icon in about dialog...

Are the icons installed in /usr/ or /usr/local?

into /usr

pacman -Ql viewnior| grep usr/local
gives nothing

I attached a couple of screenshots, once with the icons only in /usr/ and the second with the icons also copied to /usr/local/.

I can confirm this problem. I'm on x86_64.

I found the problem. After installing Viewnior, the icon cache is not updated for some reason. Running "gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/hicolor" fixes it.
