Bug Description

I just tried Icebreaker and was disappointed that I had to run it from the terminal. It would be great if an item could be added to the 'Applications' > 'Games' menu.

I can confirm this - no .desktop file is installed. Unfortunately, I've become addicted to the game so I can't work on it ;)

Icon available: /usr/share/icebreaker/icebreaker_48.bmp

New .desktop file (validates). Existing icon is not linked to from the file, please add a symlink in /usr/share/pixmaps if possible.

Thanks!

The package already had a desktop file but was not installing it. I fixed it up based on some of Phil's suggestions and uploaded. Thank you.

Hi!

Thanks for the new release, I now have an entry in my Games menu. There is no icon, however, which means that I get errors if I try to add it to the panel etc.

Any chance of a fix?

Probably. Unfortunately the current icon file is a .bmp which doesn't seem to be handled well. If someone could convert it to a .xpm or .svg I could make a quick easy fix. Thanks again.

Much as I would like to have drawn a new svg icon to replace this, I'm short on time so this is an xpm of the bmp :).

OK, uploaded with attached icon file. Thanks Aaron!
