> Hi,

> I'm one of the VDG Members how is response to the Breeze Icon set.
>
> As some other KDE4 apps (Krusader, Amarok, ...) Digikam use app specific
> icons located in /usr/share/kde4/apps/digikam/icons/hicolor instead of
> Icons of the Standard icon set (/usr/share/icons/... ). So the icon set is
> hardcoded.
>
> This is no problem cause KDE SC 4 only support ONE icon set (Oxygen) now
> Plasma 5 support Breeze and Breeze Dark. So app developers have the problem
> that they have to support two (or three) icon sets. To reduce additional
> work in the source code and to make it easier for the user the VDG would
> recommand to add the app specific icons into the main icon set which is
> located in /usr/share/icons/ You can also read my blog post entry
> https://kdeonlinux.wordpress.com/2015/08/07/breeze-icons-in-plasma-5-4-and-future-work/
>
> So my offer is that the VDG will response to all app specific icons and
> you have to change in an cmake file that first the icons from
> /urs/share/icons were used AND when there are no icon with the right name
> exists the icons from the source code
> (/urs/share/kde4/apps/dikgikam/icons/hicolor/) will be used.
>
> I also make an first draft of the app specific digikam icons see
> https://github.com/NitruxSA/breeze-icon-theme/pull/269 some icons are
> still missing but they will come. feel free to commit what you don't like.
>
> With the commited solution Digikam will support Breeze, Breeze Dark AND
> Oxygen cause the Oxygen icons are in /usr/share/kde4/apps/digikam/ with an
> change in one cmake file.
>
> I don't want to say. I'm finished please change it as I want. I make the
> icons (without your agreement) cause I wan't to show you how it could work
> and we can discuss everything at Randa.
>
> See you at Randa
