Bug 631498 – app-office/gnumeric-1.12.32 doesn't install dialog (action) icons

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vince C. 2017-09-20 09:21:51 UTC]

After installing Gnumeric I found out there are missing icons from the stock tree. As a matter of fact when the ebuild install phase completes, the icon directories icons/*/actions are missing from /usr/share/icons/hicolor. Consequently, many dialogue boxes icons are missing and may have dialogue boxes resized to impractical dimensions. I believe the bug lies in the configure/make scripts but I'm unable to understand how these work hence can't provide no patch, I'm sorry.

I have run "ebuild $(equery w gnumeric) install" and the image directories where the size-dependent icons are located only contain the "apps" folder, the "actions" folder is missing:

Apparently app-office/gnumeric-1.12.35 fixes the icon issues.
