Bug 174353 – Navigation icons in Wasp theme from gnome-themes-extras fail to display properly.

• Status: RESOLVED CANTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description John Krukoff 2007-04-12 23:03:08 UTC]

Some of the .svg files in the Wasp theme are non-conforming SVG documents. 
This renders them unusable in strict SVG implementations, such as Batik.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch to the Wasp theme using the gnome theme switcher.
2. Open nautilus.
Actual Results:  
1. Broken image icons appear for back/forward/up and similar navigation icons.


Expected Results:  
1. The icons should be rendered properly.

This is a known gnome bug (#354221), with a patch available on the gnome bugzilla site at:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354221

Hmmm... I just tried wasp on gnome 2.18.0, and it worked fine, as far as I can tell.  I even checked some of the icons specified in that patch, and they all seem to work.  Could you be more specific about what's broken and how?

2.18.0? I assume that's unstable, as this is what I see for gnome:

*  gnome-base/gnome
      Latest version available: 2.16.2
      Latest version installed: 2.16.2
      Size of files: 0 kB
      Homepage:      http://www.gnome.org/
      Description:   Meta package for the GNOME desktop
      License:       as-is

With that patch, the navigation icons (Back,Forward,Up,Reload and the like) work. Without it, I get a broken image icon, as in the attached screenshot.

could you confirm it's still broken with current gnome ? (2.18 or 2.20)

I don't run unstable, so I've got gnome 2.18 now, which still exhibits the same broken icons. I've attached the patch that I pulled from the gnome bugtracker which fixes the problem for me, though it no longer applies cleanly to the current gnome-themes-extra package (0.9.0).

Here are my USE flags, I don't think I've specified anything that would effect SVG rendering:
USE="X aac acpi adns aim alsa artworkextra bash-completion bittorrent cairo
     cdda cddb cdparanoia cdr colordiff console dbus dga dvd dvdr eds encode
     epiphany esd fam firefox flac ftp gaim gif gnome gnome-print gtk gtk2

     truetype vim-pager vim-with-x vorbis win32codecs wma xml xscreensaver xsl
     xv xvid yahoo -fortran -isdnlog"

Maybe the cairo flag has more effect than I think it does?

gnome-themes-extras 2.20 and higher no longer provide the Wasp theme. Upstream closed the linked bug and I verified it on a stable box.
