Current galculator icon, imho, is very brand-oriented, and there are few gtk icon themes, where galc icon doesn't look alien. It would be good to have some use flag, which patches desktop launcher, replacing icon=galculator value with something other. Good values for use with disabled galc branding: - accessories-calculator: seems to be standard - at least if you choosing icon in glade with option to show only standard icons, this, among few others, will be shown; - calc: doesn't fall into same category as above, and rather looks like gnome-calculator. However, this name itself doesn't look DE-specific. As for my taste, i would vote for accessories-calculator. Use flag: could be "branding", but i already found it, described as enabling gentoo-specific branding, while here it would rather enable/disable galculator brand icon. Possible modifications in ebuild: src_prepare() { sed -e 's/Icon=galculator/Icon=calc/' galculator.desktop.in } Since it is possible for any user to just copy desktop launcher to ~/.local/share/applications and modify, this still will be good to set default.
Misorinting), though it was for example, i meaned this: sed -e 's/Icon=galculator/Icon=accessories-calculator/' galculator.desktop.in
Even after reading the report several times, I do not fully understand your report. From that what I understood, you prefer your own icon set. I think it is the best you do this in your overlay. Please elaborate the ticket with the help of other users and open a new ticket, if I completely misunderstood you.
