Hello, my package viewmol contains a handful of icons for kde. I don't use kde daily myself, so I'm not sure about correct handling of the icons.
viewmol has its own install script for the icons, it wants to copy them under /usr/share/icons/default.kde, as well as providing /usr/share/applications/viewmol.desktop and some desktop config files under /usr/share/mimelnk. Bug #254247 reports that use of /usr/share/icons/default.kde is a conflict against kdelibs-data. But dpkg does not complain. On the other hand, kdelibs-data's version of default.kde is a symlink to crystalsvg, while viewmol's is a plain directory. This will be a problem if viewmol is installed before kdelibs-data. Is there any better way of handling the icons which viewmol wants to place under default.kde, or is a pre-dependency on kdelibs-data the only solution (not a very good solution for those viewmol users who don't use kde)?
