Bug ID: 952288
Summary: Find a way to set Adwaita as systemwide icon theme
when installing GNOME DE
Classification: openSUSE
Product: openSUSE Factory
Version: 2015*
Hardware: Other
OS: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Enhancement
Priority: P5 - None
Component: GNOME
Assignee: bnc-team-gnome(a)forge.provo.novell.com
Reporter: zaitor(a)opensuse.org
QA Contact: qa-bugs(a)suse.de
Found By: ---
Blocker: ---
As of today, any user installing GNOME as DE will still end up with
DMZ set as system cursor instead of Adwaita.
(do a grep X_MOUSE_CURSOR /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager on your boxes).
Now this is only noticed when users open up yast (and possibly odd 3'rd party
apps)
It's rather visually unpleasing, and something we should look into fixing.
The easiest thing to do would probably be to add it to one of our branding
packages, or even create a new one if needed.
Ideally we should offer a "system option" in tweak tool, but that will probably
be a lot of work.
Patches/fixes welcome everyone.

Hi Bjorn!
Love the suggestion. I think we might want to make this a part of the Adwaita
theme (adwaita-icon-theme) itself. If this sounds okay, or if you suggest some
other way, I will take it up.

Somebody best carefully check what implication this has when running yast
inside a KDE session, andd XFCE session, LXDE, Englightenment, IceWM...
Yast basically uses the DMZ icon theme as it runs as root, not as user...
Considering that starting other tasks as root actually does not make them use
DMZ, makes me believe that YaST is messing with the cursor on its own.
Is yast the ONLY app that uses DMZ?

Yeah we can not use the adwaita package itself, as that can/may be used
by a lot of others.
It has to be a package only we "use".
I never said this was an easy problem to solve. :-)
As for other apps, I have no clue, as I always set the default to
"Adwaita" pretty quickly.
What would be interesting to check is - does yast have "wrong" icon
also in KDE?

Pretty much all Qt apps also use the DMZ theme: tested with VLC, veusz,
qt-settings and a few others. Don't worry, these others were promptly
uninstalled ;)

To clarify, this was when testing Qt apps from inside a GNOME session [on
openSUSE Tumbleweed (20151030) (x86_64)].
