First of all, sorry for the tone of my previous comment.
KeePass is a Windows-only application, while KeePassXC is a standalone
community fork with Linux support and with different branding. But now, that
I'm thinking more about it...
I can only guess that years ago, the fork used "keepass" icon name, and that's
why the Breeze icon theme contains an icon called "keepass". Otherwise, it
doesn't make sense to me, because KeePass is a Windows-only application, so why
even bother creating a custom icon for it?
But I've been using KeePassXC for years with the default Breeze icon theme, and
I've never seen the custom green leaf-like icon provided by the Breeze icon
theme. So it must have been a long time since that icon isn't used?
As for the tray icon, its style resembles the original icon, and it's just
adapted to the Breeze's tray icon guidelines. In version 2.6.0 KeePassXC's
developers introduced their own, official monochrome icon variants. However, I
find them to be too fat in comparison to other system tray icons, and I think
that the custom icon provided by the Breeze icon theme fits better. In my
opinion, the latest commit that overrides the official monochrome icons is
correct. So, thank you for doing that.
As for the application icon, the green leaf-like icon doesn't resemble the
original icon. But if that custom icon has been actually designed for KeePassXC
(but got lost due to some upstream changes), then it can make a come-back, I
guess? Personally I'm used to the official KeePassXC icon, but I wouldn't mind
that change. The question is, whether upstream does not mind about overriding
their official icon, given it's quite different and can cause some confusion.
I'm not in a position to decide about such things.
