some lxqt-config applications do not have icons in the menu of lxqt-panel

[Lyn Perrine]

To reproduce open the menu in lxqt and move the mouse over prefrences. Then look at the menu with all the options and see that session settings power management and file associations do not have icon when using the lubuntu default icon theme. This occured both with the lubuntu-artwork from utopic repos and the latest daily installed from lubuntu-art/daily ppa.

Thanks. I can't reproduce it, I think it's fixed now, but feel free to reopen if it's not.

Hi.

I can confirm that *SOME* localapps shortcuts missing icons in LXQt.

It seems that LXQt wants structured icons folder (i.e. with /color-scheme/size/...) rather than plain folder that is created by ltsp scripts (/tmp/ltsp-localapps-$USER-XXXXXX/icons)

I temporarily fixed the problem with the following command on server:

ln -sfT ../../../opt/ltsp/amd64/usr/share/icons /usr/local/share/icons

as 1. /usr/local/share is included by default in XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable
   2. /usr/local/share/icons path was not used in my ltsp server

Best regards,
Albert
