So I realize I"m talking to myself, but the code here in awful.utils appears to be incorrect
function util.geticonpath(iconname, exts, dirs, size) exts = exts or { 'png', 'gif' } dirs = dirs or { '/usr/share/pixmaps/' } for _, d in pairs(dirs) do for _, e in pairs(exts) do local icon if size then icon = string.format("%s%ux%u/%s.%s", d, size, size, iconname, e) if util.file_readable(icon) then return icon end end icon = d .. iconname .. '.' .. e if util.file_readable(icon) then return icon end end end end the string.format of icon paths should be as follows for gnome / oxygen: /usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/apps/iconname.extension so thats string.format("%s%ux%u/apps/%s.%s",... However I use Faenza (a popular theme, which uses the following folder order... /usr/share/icons/Faenza/apps/32/iconname.extension so thats string.format("%s/apps/%u/%s.%s",... I believe the gnome/oxygen icon path is more popular though. lastly another question, do we only want to look in the apps folder? or do you also want to look at actions, categories, emblems, mimetypes status, devices, extras, places, stock?? Thanks...
