ebuild renames and installs the icon as pgadmin3.png but pgadmin3.desktop is looking for pgAdmin3.png.
Created attachment 248853 [details, diff] Icon path fix for pgadmin3-1.12.0.ebuild
Added a patch for the ebuild. I tried installing pgadmin3 with the patch applied to it, and I can confirm that the icon now shows up in my applications menu.
Fixed in pgadmin3-1.12.1-r1
This seems to have re-occured in dev-db/pgadmin3-1.20.0-r1? pgadmin3.desktop lists its icon as /usr/share/pgadmin3/pgAdmin3.png but the icon is at /usr/share/pixmaps/pgadmin3.png

I've updated the desktop patch in tree to correct the path name. However, given the extremely minor nature of this issue, I did not do a revision bump of the package. No one should be under the impression that they need to recompile all of pgadmin just to edit a line in a text file that can be edited by hand. So, you can go ahead and edit the icon path yourself without ramifications. All future emerges will not have this problem.
