Description tea 2020-05-20 01:36:40 UTC
net-p2p/transmission-remote-gtk and x11-misc/spacefm use the cursor “col-resize” for vertical resizing. Since gentoo-xcursors doesn't provide it, the cursor remains the standard arrow. Symlinking col-resize to sb_h_double_arrow fixes that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install and enable x11-themes/gentoo-xcursors
2. Install and launch x11-misc/spacefm
3. Activate a second panel
4. Resize the panel
Actual Results:  
The cursor doesn't change while it hovers above a resizeable thing.

Expected Results:  
The cursor changes to indicate that resizing can be done.

Other symlink candidates:

col-resize -> sb_h_double_arrow
row-resize -> sb_v_double_arrow

ew-resize -> sb_h_double_arrow
ns-resize -> sb_v_double_arrow

e-resize -> base_arrow_right
n-resize -> base_arrow_up
s-resize -> base_arrow_down
w-resize -> base_arrow_left

ne-resize -> top_right_corner
nw-resize -> top_left_corner
se-resize -> bottom_right_corner
sw-resize -> bottom_left_corner

This package is ancient and I don't even know who created the cursors. I think unless someone provides new cursors and takes over maintainership, it's just going to stay this way. If the package has bugs, maybe we should just remove it?

It's not that there are pictures missing, only a few symlinks. And the maximum size of 64px should be good for at least a few years.

I could take over proxy-maintainership and fix it in the ebuild or pour the tarball into a git repo and fix it there. What do you think?

That would be great. It sounds like you already know a lot more about the package than I do :)
