            Bug ID: 15294
           Summary: Desktop launchers ignore unthemed icons
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Xfdesktop
           Version: 4.13.3
          Hardware: PC (x86_64)
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: vpooldyn-subscription at yahoo.it
  Target Milestone: Xfce 4.14

Overview

    Up to xfdesktop 4.12, icons placed directly under /usr/share/icons were
used to paint icons on the desktop.
    Now, all icons placed directly there and not under a theme or "hicolor" are
ignored, but only on the desktop: they still appear in menus.
    The same happens if the icon is placed directly under $HOME/.icons, as
opposed to i.e. $HOME/.icons/hicolor/48x48/apps.

Steps to Reproduce

    1) Place an icon under /usr/share/icons (i.e.
/usr/share/icons/testicon.png).
    2) Create a .desktop entry on the desktop and make it reference the new
icon by name (i.e. Icon=testicon)

Actual Results

    The new launcher shows the default launcher icon rather than the chosen one

Expected Results

    The launcher should use the selected icon

Other info

   The system is Arch Linux x86-64, fully updated. Using official
distro-provided XFCE packages.
