Arch Linux

Hello all,

I'm a bit lost at the moment: for some reason icons aren't showed when using some icon themes. Because I tried serveral in the last couple of months I don't remember all the icon-theme names, but recently I'm having the same issue with Numix-uTouch Linux Desktop Icon Theme (http://me4oslav.deviantart.com/art/Numix-uTouch-Linux-Desktop-Icon-Theme-389122876).

As you can read the reason for not all icons display:
"Ok, seems that some links are missing. When looking at the HighContrast icon-theme all icons are displayed correctly.

When doing debugging:
sudo find /usr/share/icons/HighContrast/ -name "*firefox*"
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/22x22/apps/firefox.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/scalable/apps-extra/firefox-icon.svg
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/256x256/apps/firefox.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/24x24/apps/firefox.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/16x16/apps/firefox.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/32x32/apps/firefox.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrast/48x48/apps/firefox.png

sudo find /usr/share/icons/Numix-uTouch/ -name "*firefox*"
/usr/share/icons/Numix-uTouch/apps/48/firefox-trunk.svg
/usr/share/icons/Numix-uTouch/apps/256/firefox.png

There are no other firefox.png images/symlinks for other formats (e.g. 24x.. 32x..).

For Nautilus (e.g.) the file-manager:
file-roller.png
system-file-manager.png
edit-undo & edit-undo (getting errors)
They also doesn't exists.

So some icons doesn't have all formats yet, that is why KeepassX, FireFox and Nautlus are not displaying any icons.

Hope you can fix it. Just to let you know where to look."

Developer response:
"The reason why there are only one (or two for Chrome, Firefox and Nautilus) sizes in Numix is 'cause the icon design guidelines we follow allow us to let the DE do the scaling up or down, which means we don't need different sizes. And the .svg files in apps/48 and the .png in apps/256 scale up/down perfectly to all the sizes. You are the first that has such issues and Numix has been having Arch users for quite a while now.
I checked if the keeppass icon display and they do, here is a screenie:

I have no clue at all what is causing your hiccoughs.
Here is the BZR trunk: code.launchpad.net/~numix/numi…"

So is this a package/compile issue or I'm a doing something wrong? :)

Anyway, hope you can take a look at this report.

Thanks.
