Just to share my experience after some tests: According to the Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GTK%2B) and GTK+ 3 reference manual (https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings--gtk-icon-theme-name), we should use the key "gtk-icon-theme-name" to set the icon theme for the applications that use GTK+ 3 (for example: mousepad). Also, the default value of this key is "Adwaita". That means GTK+ 3 will search the icon from "Adwaita" icon theme if this key is missing in the configuration file so we do not need to set something likes "gtk-icon-theme-name = "Adwaita"" in the file. (P.S. should we put "Adwaita" icon theme in the Recommended list for the GTK+ 3 package?) Also, according to the "Icon Theme specification" (http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html), the "hicolor" icon theme should be available. (Refer to the Directory Layout section of the specification): In order to have a place for third party applications to install their icons there should always exist a theme called "hicolor" [1]. The data for the hicolor theme is available for download at: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/icon-theme/. Implementations are required to look in the "hicolor" theme if an icon was not found in the current theme. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
