            Bug ID: 483905
           Summary: Can't generate icons on Windows
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: Breeze
           Version: master
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Microsoft Windows
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Icons

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
I noticed that generating icons (i.e. dark variants) is expressly disabled on
Windows as of commit 6324f834 from 3 years ago. Is there any backstory or
previous efforts in fixing this? My searches didn't turn anything up and I'd
love to know if there have been previous attempts before diving into it myself.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try to cmake configure the project, even with Python and lxml installed.
2. cmake --build

OBSERVED RESULT
Generating icons is always disabled with an admonition to ensure Python and
lxml are always installed (as if they weren't). This means that, with very few
exceptions, dark icons are identical to light icons when built on Windows.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dark icons generated properly.
