Description wpsalt 2005-07-06 12:21:05 UTC
Balsa 2.3.4 installs the file /usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache  This
breaks the display of some icons in Balsa itself, and in other GTK+ apps.  For
example, the gnome-panel "Add to panel..." dialog will not display several
icons, including the application launcher and mini-commander icons.  Most of the
toolbar icons in Balsa itself will not display, including the "Check mail" and
"Compose message" icons.

The problem can be resolved by deleting the file
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache and restarting affected applications.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge balsa

Actual Results:  
Many icons disappeared from GTK+ apps as described

Expected Results:  
The icons should have been displayed as normal.


Using stable versions of all packages involved apart from balsa itself (as no
versions of balsa are marked stable on amd64)

GTK+ version: 2.6.7

Comment 1 John N. Laliberte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-06 19:15:57 UTC
Thanks for catching this!

Patched the Makefile.am in the images directory and stopped it from making this
file.

Please re-open if the issue is not resolved in 2.3.4-r1.
