Bug ID: 487235
Summary: Some Breeze (light) icons not recolored for the Breeze
Dark package
Classification: Plasma
Product: Breeze
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: unspecified
OS: All
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Icons
Assignee: visual-des...@kde.org
Reporter: schwimmbe...@gmail.com
CC: kain...@gmail.com, m...@nueljl.in
Target Milestone: ---
I'm developing an application with PySide6 (Qt for Python) and use xdg icon
theme names to let my app be themeable.
This means it pulls icons from the system's icon theme, in my case, Breeze
Dark.
Unfortunately, Qt doesn't natively recolor icons, so with Breeze6 I noticed
that some of my icons were now from the breeze
instead of the breeze dark set.
Looking at where the icons are stored: /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark I saw that
many of the icons, especially in the
status/16 directory, weren't actually recolored, but instead identical to their
breeze (light) counterpart.
Looking at the Gitlab, it's clear that there is an automated process that
generates the dark icons from the light icons,
but apparently it isn't working so well, as the number of un-recolored icons
has drastically increased since breeze5.
Checking the pacman cache, to look at the contents of the tar.gz that was
installed, I saw much the same.
Then checking another distro, I looked at the contents of the
breeze-icon-theme-6.2.0 Fedora rpm
(https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/breeze-icon-theme), which was identical.
Attached is a split for the breeze 5
and breeze 6 dark icons.
Using the Icon Explorer, the icons do load correctly, showing no signs of wrong
coloring, so it's likely the runtime
icon loader is fixing all these issues, but the static recoloring script isn't
doing as good of a job.
OBSERVED RESULT
Many icons in breeze dark aren't fit for a dark background.
EXPECTED RESULT
All icons are properly recolored.
