Package: debhelper

Severity: normal
Tags: patch
File: /usr/bin/dh_icons
Dear Maintainer,
In investigating how the file /usr/share/icons/oxygen/icon-theme.cache
came to be on my system (since it looked like the largest file in my
whole /usr tree, and the "cache" in the name doesn't exactly make it
sound critical to the operation of anything), I noticed something ...
dh_icons(1) says:
> dh_icons is a debhelper program that updates Freedesktop icon caches
This makes it sound like there is a Freedesktop spec for something
called "icon caches"; not only is this not true, but the only relevant
requirement in the Icon Theme spec (which does exist) is that icon
caches be invalidated whenever the mtime on a theme directory changes,
and the spec expliclity expects such caches to be in memory.
So, I think it would be more appropriate to refer to them as GTK icon
caches, as in the patch provided.
(And I also don't see any reason that KDE's icon theme needs one in the
first place ...)

-B<dh_icons> is a debhelper program that updates Freedesktop icon caches
+B<dh_icons> is a debhelper program that updates GTK's

Currently this program does not handle installation of the files, though it
may do so at a later date. It takes care of adding maintainer script

Changes:
debhelper (9.20130504) unstable; urgency=low
.
* dh_shlibdeps: Warn if -V flag is passed, to avoid it accidentially being
used here rather than in dh_makeshlibs. Closes: #680339

* python distutils buildsystem: Propagate failure of pyversions.
Closes: #683551 Thanks, Clint Byrum

* Improve -X documentation. Closes: #686696
