Hi, only very recently brp-desktop was fixed to allow desktop files that refer to standard icons from the XDG Icon Naming Spec rather than providing their own icons (see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571819) and this continues to be a problem causing fatal errors when building packages for 12.1 and 11.4. I'm wondering how to deal with this, I can think of several options:

Yep.. annoying one..

...

* make a copy from some icon theme and provide it in hicolor (not really viable since this can easily lead to conflicts with other packages) * make a copy from some icon theme and rename it to some invented name and edit the desktop file (not nice either, diverges from upstream and prevents theming) * disable brp-check-suse (big hammer, probably with side effects)

Another option: copy the fixed brp-check-suse package to your project and profit from the fix.

That's clearly the best solution, thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
