Public bug reported: The latest GTK2 update in Karmic makes all icons loaded from external files display improperly. When using the Qtcurve theme, this causes most icons to be displayed as box with a red X. Also, the Wicd icons and tray icon do not work. The tray icon is displayed as a transparent box, and the window icons are displayed as boxes with red Xs. The following output, or similar, is produced in the console when attempting to load such icons:
(gtk-chtheme:3325): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading icon: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file '/usr/share/icons//oxygen/16x16/actions/help-about.png' ** Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [karmic] Latest gtk2 update makes externally-loaded PNG icons not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
