Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-do

If I enable the Firefox plugin v3.0 for Gnome Do, the cardboard box turns into a light gray square with a darker gray "X" inside it. I think there should be a FF icon there instead, so I think the app is for some reason not being able to grab the icon from where it's supposed to.

This should be fairly easy to duplicate. I'm using Karmic's default theme
and the Firefox plugin comes with vanilla Do. Anyone?

Sorry for confirming my own bug, I'm doing this because Sancho just said he could reproduce it.

P.S.: please ignore my statement at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-do-plugins/+bug/444171/comments/4. I don't know why on earth I wrote that.

Apparently Do is looking for the Firefox 3.0 icon, which is no longer there. Creating a symlink to the new Firefox 3.5 icon fixed it for me:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.5.png /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.0.png

This workaround didn't work here. :-/

I did:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.5.png /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.0.png
sudo ln -s /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.5.png /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png

Then restarted gnome-do and it works. Thanks!

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-do-plugins - 0.8.2.1+dfsg-2ubuntu1

---------------
gnome-do-plugins (0.8.2.1+dfsg-2ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable for -cil-dev transition fixes. Remaining Ubuntu
    changes:
    + debian/patches/02_gnomesession_lock_screen.dpatch:
      - Lock screen prior to suspending or hibernating (LP: #460303)

gnome-do-plugins (0.8.2.1+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Christopher James Halse Rogers ]
  * debian/control:
    + Drop slocate from gnome-do-plugins Recommends: this package is only
      in oldstable (Closes: #565656).
    + Update build-depends for -cil-dev transition.
  * debian/rules:
    + Pass fake MAUTIL=/bin/true to configure. mautil has moved to the
      mono-addins-utils package, so now isn't pulled in by
      libmono-addins-cil-dev. The build system doesn't actually *use* mautil,
      and hasn't for a couple of releases. Upstream's buildsystem maintainer
      should perhaps pay more attention ;).
  * debian/patches/02_fix_firefox_icon.patch
    + Use the unversioned "firefox" icon name. Both Iceweasel in Sid and
      Firefox 3.6 in Lucid ship this icon. (Closes: #544075) (LP: #444171)

  [ Jo Shields ]
  * debian/control:
    + No-change bump to Standards 3.8.4
    + Update mono-devel build-dep to 2.4.3
    + Remove superfluous build-deps on individual mono libs

Hi,

I have version 0.8.3.1 of Gnome Do and Firefox 3.6.3 after a recent upgrade to Lucid, and still had the same problem.

Creating a soft link named firefox-3.5.png and pointing to the existing firefox.png fixed it:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.5.png

The fix works after restarting Gnome Do.

Note it's firefox-3.5.png and not firefox-3.6.png, as the latter didn't work on my set-up.
