2010-10-30 23:04:42 Vince B description Binary package hint: avant-window-navigator In avant-window-navigator/awn-settings/awnClass.py, in the 'safe_load_icon' method, the icon 'gtk-missing-image' is used as a last resort fallback if any icon is missing. Problem is this is not a very good fallback: as soon as you use a non gnome icon-theme (oxygen, crystal-svg, etc.) under a non-gnome window manager (Window Maker, Xfce, KDE, etc.), awn-settings simply dies complaining that the icon is missing. In case 'gtk-missing-image' is missing, using 'unknown' as a last last resort fallback instead of dying a miserable death would be nice. Actual tests were made on awn-settings version 0.4.0-2ubuntu1 on Maverick i386 under KDE: I had to chose to use the Tango icon theme which include the 'gtk-missing-image' icon, instead of Oxygen which doesn't, to get awn-settings to start.
