+icondir = $(datadir)/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps
Yeah, or use a single Makefile and the `nobase_` prefix, like:
```make
iconsdir = $(datadir)/icons/hicolor
nobase_dist_icons_DATA = \
16x16/apps/workbench-project.png \
32x32/apps/workbench-project.png \
scalable/apps/workbench-project.svg \
…
```
And of course have the different size in the corresponding folders.

No, [`_DATA` is not distributed by
default](https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#index-_005fDATA),
I guess because it's often generated out of templates and the like.
> How are the icons selected by the application?
They are installed as part of the [icon
theme](https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkIconTheme.html#GtkIconTheme.description)
so referencing them by name can automatically load them at the most
appropriate size.
