Current High Contrast Icon Status in Workstation

Hello everyone.

In the approved apps and launcher guidelines we say launchers that are
installed by default must have matching high contrast launchers. This
is needed for obvious accessibility reasons.

The following is a list of applications which lack high contrast icons
in Workstation right now. In accordance to this policy, we need to fix
their icons.

* nm-connection-editor - shows red circle instead of high contrast
icon. Since nm-connection-editor's launcher should be hidden in GNOME
now (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682456) all we
need to do to "fix" this is pull this patch from the upstream's master
branch to Fedora's NetworkManager package.

* gnome-sound-recorder - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734423

* SELinux Troubleshooter - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1130794

* firewall-config - on this list because WG didn't decide its fate
yet, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1130795

* simple-scan -  gnome-themes-standard issue
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735455

* gnome-maps - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707287

* DevAssistant - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1132193

* gnome-weather - fixed in upstream's master, pending release

* anaconda - I didn't file a bug. I don't know if I should. Is it
expected of people who need high contrast UI to set it before the
installation? If so, I will file this.

This list is here for your information. Most of these issues are
tracked & prioritized upstream, and require little to no effort on our
side.

Thanks,
