Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: awn-settings
In avant-window-navigator/awn-settings/awnClass.py, in the 'safe_load_icon'
method, the icon 'gtk-missing-image' is used as a last resort fallback if any
icon is missing.
Problem is this is not a very good fallback: as soon as you use a non gnome
icon-theme (oxygen, crystal-svg, etc.) under a non-gnome window manager (Window
Maker, Xfce, KDE, etc.), awn-settings simply dies complaining that the icon is
missing.
In case 'gtk-missing-image' is missing, using 'unknown' as a last last
resort fallback instead of dying a miserable death would be nice.
Actual tests were made on awn-settings version 0.4.0-2ubuntu1 on
Maverick i386 under KDE: I had to chose to use the Tango icon theme
which include the 'gtk-missing-image' icon, instead of Oxygen which
doesn't, to get awn-settings to start.
