 Ok, I've found a fix for this.  It looks like we need to set
 gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome in a  gtkrc file.

snip setting up a local .gtkrc file

Thanks for doing the research on this.

I just wanted to note that I was unable to get it to work with a
local .gtkrc file and launching from the KDE menu.  For me I ended up
having to create /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc containing the correct setting.

Regards,
Paul

Assuming you have KDE setup to export settings to gtk/gnome apps, it
will overwrite your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file, and also add a line to your
~/.bashrc to make sure it is used by gtk.  Your ~/.bashrc probably
contains:

# This line was appended by KDE
# Make sure our customised gtkrc file is loaded.
export GTK2_RC_FILES=$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0

If you change this line, or the .gtkrc-2.0 file, the KDE control
center may overwrite the changes.  So my fix is to change ~/.bashrc to
contain:


# This line was appended by KDE
# Make sure our customised gtkrc file is loaded.
export GTK2_RC_FILES=$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0

# and also use my personal .gtkrc file...
export GTK2_RC_FILES=${GTK2_RC_FILES}:$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0-rjf


Then .gtkrc-2.0-rjf contains only:

gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome


This allows all evolution icons to be found.

Of course, I had to dig through the source to figure out the fix, but
once I knew the solution, finding the relevant web pointers was easy!

Keith, thanks for the pointer.

WTF!  Now I have to pull in a bunch of other gnome shit just to run
evo.  And it's not just that it has to be installed, now I have to
start gnome-setings-daemon any time I want to run evo and see icons.

That wouldn't be so bad, but gnome-settings-daemon screws up my fonts
and mouse acceleration settings from KDE.  Every application started
after running gnome-settings-daemon uses different font sizes.

Yeah, I could probably start a gnome session to configure things to my
liking, but what happens when I change my mind on something?  Now I
have to try and keep two different desktop configurations in sync...

For the last several years Gnome and KDE have been moving towards
playing nicely together, allowing users to mix-and-match applications
at will.  This dependancy on gnome-settings-daemon, and it's inability
to play nicely with KDE, is a HUGE step backwards IMO.

evo uses gnome stock icons. These icons are not searched for by kde. It
shouldn't be an issue. Maybe there's a kde config for icon search path.
Look under /usr/share/icons and see if you can locate it. If so, you can
link to them in ~/.local/share. Sorry I can't be more specific.
