Thanks for the gtk bug reference. whaticon is really useful ! But this seems to be a different bug: if an icon is not in the system paths, xfce4-terminal doesn't pick it up at all from the user paths.
paulo:~/tmp$ cp -v $(./whaticon system-file-manager) ~/.local/share/icons/foo.png '/usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce/apps/22/system-file-manager.png' -> '/home/paulo/.local/share/icons/foo.png' paulo:~/tmp$ ./whaticon foo /home/paulo/.local/share/icons/foo.png paulo:~/tmp$ xfce4-terminal --icon foo Look at the screenshot I attached: xfce4-terminal didn't pick up foo. ** Attachment added: "`xfce4-terminal --icon foo ` didn't pick up ~/.local/share/icons/foo.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-terminal/+bug/1782445/+attachment/5165961/+files/Desktop_014.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1782445 Title: xfce4-terminal doesn't search icons in XDG_DATA_DIRS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-terminal/+bug/1782445/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
