I just had a quick look in the document you have linked but I can't see any indication why svg is wrong there where it is and why it should be placed in the other directory, though as said, just had a quick fly though the documentation. Sure, the path can be changed, the icons are installed by the corresponding cmake file. When I have more time I look into this in more detail. |

This might come earlier then expected, looks like the directory needs to be changed for flatpak too https://discourse.flathub.org/t/ksnip-flatpak-request/303/2 |

On Unix-like systems, the SVG icon is now installed as
/usr/share/pixmaps/ksnip.svg. Even though the Icon Theme Specification (https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html) allows such usage, the SVG icon is not pixmap at all so it's somehow confusing.Is there any possibility to tweak the icon installation path and use
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/? This should be a better way of shipping App icons. Such usage is also standardized in the previously-mentioned Icon Theme Specification.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
