 I tried a few things to see if I can get rid of Rodent stock icons,
 despit of the chosen icon theme.  They appear only in Xfce-* themes,
 which have a include line at the end.  Yesterday someone joined
 #debian-xfce and had the same behavior as I do on my AMD64 (where I use
 deb sid packages).
 
 As of the changelog, this behavior has been included since early 2005
 (2.2.5-2).  What do you think of it?  Fine to keep it removed?

As a side note: stock icons *may* be provided by icon themes, but that's only
a may. So it seems the default behavior is to have them provided by gtk
theme. If they don't ship it directly, they can include another theme or
something like that.

I'm fine removing the include line (already done in svn) but I'd like to be
sure there's no problem with stock icons in Xfce without it (like, not having
some icons, or something like that).

Can you check that too?

 I did an install without any icon themes at all (except
 hicolor-icon-theme which rdepends on libgtk2.0-0).  The only annoyance
 is that Thunar uses for every file a fallback icon.  The rest is OK.

This is really ugly. So we need to do something about this. Aka, something
should depend on an icon theme (xfce4-icon-theme). Having libxfcegui4 depends
on it would enable all xfce apps to benefit from this. That brings
hicolor-icon-theme and maybe gtk2-engines-xfce/librsvg2-common through
Recommends (gtk2-engines *doesnt* Deps: or Recs: libxfcegui4).

What do you think?
