Upgrade problem -- icons

Post by mdmarmer »

When there is an upgrade of lxde-settings-daemon or lxappearance, some of my icons disappear and I am at a loss to get them back. I'm going to keep a copy of /usr/share/icons and see if this helps. For now I have pinned the packages, but I certainly need a better solution. TIA

Are they are only stopping to being displayed or are they deleted?
If they are deleted, you should write a bug report for your distro, I dont think it is intended and have not appeared on my machine (gentoo)

Some icons are no longer displayed. They are not being deleted. Sometimes the icons are hard to find, as not all of them are in usr/share/icons
Also, as there are desktop icons and panel icons, it takes a while to figure out how to put them back, even after I find them.

I'm using debian testing.

Ah, you edited some icons by hand and after an upgrade your config files are smashed. Is that right?
