Description Sergey S. Starikoff 2011-02-09 07:16:39 UTC
Terminal emulator has an icon;
File manager has an icon;
Appeared in XFce-4.8 unconditionally displayed item "E-mail client" has no icon.
And the last one, web-browser also has an icon (updated not long ago).

This issue could be fixed on Gentoo level.
If you need the English locale screenshot, I'll could provde it in about this week-end.

There are some other similiar issues, which I could not correctly address:
1. Quick Launch list should not contain items for not installed applications (for example e-mail client on my home PC).
And, ideally, the list should be user-extendable;
2. And lookinkg on overloaded (after installation of OpenOffice) Application menu section (it seems strange for me that Thunderbird is also placed there) I thought that it will be good to remove listed in Quick Launch section applications from the common menu (i.e. if Mozilla Thunderbird is listed in Quick Launch section, it shouldn't be listed in Application section on menu).

Reproducible: Always

It *could* be fixed in our end but it *should* be fixed at upstream level.

1. emerge tango-icon-theme (to get freedesktop.org standard icon theme)
2. select Tango as your icon theme
3. If you still see the icon missing, report this to http://bugzilla.xfce.org/

Thank you. For 4 checked icon themes the results are:

If selected Tango icon theme (or x11-themes/xfce4-icon-theme aka Rodent) this icon is displayed correctly (but both of them looks rather ugly to my taste).
If selected standart (built in?) GNOME theme (my favourite) or x11-themes/xfce-gant-icon-theme the E-mail client icon in quick launch section is missed.

What is correct upstream bugzilla in case of such issue?

Then it's not a bug.   But gnome-icon-theme and xfce-gant-icon-theme lacks the icon.  

Tango is the freedesktop.org standard full icon theme, and has the icon, so it's proper.

We can't prevent users from installing incomplete icon themes obviously :)

You can of course contact gnome-icon-theme and xfce-gant-icon-theme maintainers (upstream maintainers, not in gentoo bugzilla) and ask for them to add new icon to their themepack.
