Bug#530696: kdebase-runtime really does need Oxygen icons

thanks

The main reason the Oxygen icon set is so much bigger than many others is that 
it is the only one containing a complete set of icons.  It is used as a backup 
in case the selected icon set is missing an icon.  If you were to install one 
of the smaller icon sets and remove kde-icons-oxygen, you would likely have 
many missing icons.

I still think it's unnecessarily large and a packaging error.
kdebase-runtime should depend on a virtual package that can be
provided by other, complete icon themes when they become available.

We can easy revisit it the day there is a complete alternate icon  set.

I really think though, that the fallback icon theme should be present always, 
else you might get weird questionmarks in all sorts of applications.

Do you know how to open the utility from Word 95 and from the control options 
inside Redhat Linux?

You should log on a connector for loading from the provider of a system.

And for what it'ss worth, the icons will not be small, but a lot smaller
one 4.3 is out. The reason is, that the .svgz-files will not be
installed anymore.

$ aptitude show kde-icons-oxygen | grep Size
