<p>Thunar, in contrast to many other file managers, is using the
"inode-directory" icon for plain folders - which the theme you
linked to is missing.</p>
<p>You can simply execute this in every of the "places/"
subdirectory of the theme to create the necessary links:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>ln -s folder.png inode-directory.png</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<p>If the theme is not picking it up, you can refresh the cache via:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>gtk-update-icon-cache /path/to/DarkPurpy</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<p>(will need root permissions if system path obviously)</p>

<pre wrap="">I have recolored the gnome icon set to blend with the Devuan ASCII (Stretch) desktop theming. But there are some glitches that are currently being discussed on the Xfce forum. The index.theme is posted there as well as a link to download the DarkPurpy icon set:

AFAICT the generic folder icon is picked up everywhere except in Thunar, even the desktop. In Jessie, Thunar does see the specific directory icons for home, documents etc. But the generic folder/directory icon reverts to gnome. In ASCII Thunar only picks up the the colorized Home icon.
Xcfe is Devuan's default desktop and I want it to look beautiful. Does anyone have a clue why Thunar is doing this? It would be terribly inefficient to have to have to resort to switching out the icons in the complete Gnome icon theme (well over 10mb). What am I missing.
Thanks,
