I switched on the old Netbook and copied over the files. The Arch package includes sizes up to 384×384 and some more in between (most notably 64×64). The icons were simply called firefox.png. The ones in my Gentoo system were called firefox-bin. It didn’t work at first, so I went into /usr/share/applications/firefox-bin.desktop and changed the Icon= line to firefox.png. And now it worked.¹ I have no idea what is different. To rule out the addition of other sizes, I renamed all firefox.png that were not previously available with firefox-bin-icon.png, and the icon still shows up big. Even reverting the .desktop’s Icon= back to firefox-icon-bin does not bring back the problem. I’m at wit’s end, but happy nonetheless, for now I have what I wanted. > Probably the easiest way to do that would be to move the entire hicolor > tree elsewhere temporarily, and copy the arch hicolor tree into its > place. > > Then as I said restart kwin and firefox, and see if you get the bigger > icons. As mentioned, I usually log out and back in, just to be sure. And I delete the caches while logged out. ¹ $ cd /usr/share/icons/hicolor && find | sort | grep firefox ./128x128/apps/firefox-bin-icon.png ./128x128/apps/firefox-bin.png ./128x128/apps/firefox.png ./16x16/apps/firefox-bin-icon.png ./16x16/apps/firefox-bin.png ./16x16/apps/firefox.png ./192x192/apps/firefox-arch.png ./22x22/apps/firefox-arch.png ./24x24/apps/firefox-arch.png ./256x256/apps/firefox-arch.png ./32x32/apps/firefox-bin-icon.png ./32x32/apps/firefox-bin.png ./32x32/apps/firefox.png ./384x384/apps/firefox-arch.png ./48x48/apps/firefox-bin-icon.png ./48x48/apps/firefox-bin.png ./48x48/apps/firefox.png ./64x64/apps/firefox-arch.png The *-arch files are from the arch package, but renamed so that the set of arch icons (firefox.png) serves the same sizes as the old firefox-bin set. firefox-bin-icon must be from an old attempt at solving this issue. $ equery files firefox-bin | grep hicolor.*png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/firefox-bin.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/firefox-bin.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/firefox-bin.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/firefox-bin.png So let’s close this. I have no idea why, but it’s working now. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network. “An itching nose must be scratched.” … Kosh (Star Wreck)
