Re: [Bug 170291] New: GNOME cannot find kile icon
After installing kile GNOME is not able to find the kile icon. The
kile entry in
the Application/Office menu shows no icon.
This problem can be solved by deleting /usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache
and executing "gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/hicolor". Without the
deletion gtk-update-icon-cache doesn't update the cache file.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kile-1.8.1-3.fc4
Since I think this has come up a few times occasionally, to me it still
sounds like GNOME brokeness. What kind of icon caching concept is
this? If the cache file gets out-of-date and an icon is not found within
the cache, the desktop system doesn't search the file system? Huh? Or
maybe this is configurable in some place? Why should a KDE application
maintain a GTK icon theme cache file?
