I don't know why (I had tried that before...), but now it does work with: instead of: The only problem with this (and probably the reason why the previous packager used the full path to freeplane.svg) is that konqueror displays a (small) bitmap instead of the svg which is pixelated.

It might only resize larger images to smaller views. The default view on my system seems to be 48x48. The icon theme spec suggests that 'icon name' doesn't include the path or the extension, though I see it also says "minimally you should install a 48x48 icon..." http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html > => does it make sense to create a bug report against nautilus > (I looked at the prefs but couldn't find anything :-/)? > I'd say not yet - I don't think we're confident that there really is a bug, rather than just a config issue. > That is really useful.

Freedesktop Application Icon / magic database (Debian)
hi, I am in the process of packaging "Freeplane" 1.2.x/1.3.x for Debian (Testing/"wheezy") and am having problems with the icons being displayed under GNOME3 (classic, nautilus 3.4.2). Freeplane >=1.2.x uses the file extension *.mm and the magic information (XML prefix) ' http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info";> Freeplane Mapa [...] - /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/freeplane.svg does exist and can be opened in eog. I also tried , and (by changing /usr/share/mime/packages/freeplane.xml and running update-mime-database /usr/share/mime) but see no change. 'file' does not detect the correct mime type, but I don't think this is related to my problem [1] (since it works with the right-click menu): $ file --mime freeplane.mm freeplane.mm: application/x-freemind; charset=us-ascii /usr/share/file/magic.mgc does not contain "freeplane", only "freemind". I read this: http://wiki.debian.org/MimeTypesSupport, but apart from this there is not much Debian documentation about mime types. Of course I read the spec, but don't yet understand this: icon: [...] "This element is not used in the system database, but only used in the user overridden database" [1] OT: can this be fixed by editing /usr/lib/mime/packages/freeplane? Shall I submit Freeplane magic information to http://www.darwinsys.com/file/? Thank you!
