  Thanks.  I've not see an Inherits line before.  I'll take a look at
 those two themes.  Later.
 
 I installed oxygen-refit-2 and ran gtk-update-icon-cache, but it
didn't help.  Elementary has icons for most of the missing names, but
only as .svg - and it inherits gnome,hicolor.

 At that point, I wasn't sure if I could use svg icons [ getting
confused by something else I'm doing! ] so I googled for some of the
other missing icons : turns out several of them are symlinks,
installed by gnome-icon-theme.  I had another look at what was
installed by gnome and they *are* there as .png.  Tried setting
the theme to gnome, and then GNOME, no change.  Installed elementary
anyway, ran gtk-update-icon-cache, changed the theme to elementary.
Still no joy.

 During that google session, I found a recent thread for some
embedded distro talking about these missing icons, not found even
after they were copied into a theme, and segfaults (on arm, I think).
I suspect a bug in 0.4.6's icon handling.

 It is usable with the '[x]' missing-icon icons, and provides
tooltips in English - for me that is adequate for the moment.
There is a maybe-related bug (at launchpad!) marked as low priority,
I get the impression that using commonly-installed icons is not a
design priority.  Giving up on this one for now.

   My final niggle with current packages!  I hadn't used midori for

 bookmark, and reopen a previously closed tab or bookmark).

   I've never had this problem on midori before (the last version I
 tried was 0.4.2 with the experimental gtk+-3 build), but google
 found various people with similar problems in the past.  Generally
 solved by specifying a different theme in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.  I added
 gtk-engines-2.20.2 and tried all the themes, no joy.  Another past
 suggestion was to use Tango so I installed tango-icon-theme-0.8.90
 and changed my gtkrc-2.0 but it made no difference.

   Then I realised that xfce has gtk-xfce-engine so I added that.
 Still no joy.

   Interestingly, if I run midori from a term it reports on stderr
 that all of the following are missing from my theme: stock_new-tab,
 gtk-add, bookmark-new, stock_add-bookmark, gnome-stock_trash,
 gtk-undo-ltr.  Any clues, please ?

You can install gnome-icon-theme{,-extras,-symbolic} if necesary. Those 
are not really gnome-dependent. You can also install oxygen-icon-theme 
if you like. It's just icon theme. I always install those no matter what 
setup I have.

 Thanks - that machine already has all three of the current gnome
icon theme variants.  I'll take a look at oxygen.

Um, is that GTK+2 or GTK+3 version of Midori? Because I'm sure that you 
need to specify icon theme in gtkrc for GTK+2 or settings.ini for GTK+3

$ cat /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome

$ cat /etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome

Afaik, without this it will fall back to hicolor-icon-theme which does 
not have all those icons :)

 It is gtk+-2, using the book's instructions for 1.4.5 - my previous
build of 1.4.3 with gtk+-3 was unsatisfactory (I forget why), so I
decided to go back to gtk+-2.  And that's why I was changing theme
names in .gtkrc-2.0.

 I took a look at oxygen-icons-4.8.4 (so big a tarball!), but it
only contains one of the icons that were reported on stderr as
missing, so I don't think it will help.
