Tasque needs ubuntu-mono icon

[David Nielsen]

Binary package hint: tasque

Tasque currently doesn't have a monochrome icon and as thus looks out of place in the Lucid notification area. This will also be needed for the App indicator when such a patch lands.

the way to fix this should be similar to the fixing of tomboy. see Bug #531533

[tnf (tnf-ars-solvendi)]

A workaround (really not a fix) is the following:
- Open /usr/share/pixmaps as root (gksu nautilus /usr/share/pixmaps)
- Right-click on the tasque-XX.png files -> open with -> gimp
- Not sure how the actions in gimp are exactly named in english, but it should be something like image -> mode -> grey scale
- Save the grey scale version
- Quit and restart tasque

The files probably will be overwritten with new tasque versions, so you might want to store the grey ones somewhere and copy them over if you make an update

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I've created some panel icons similar in style to tomboy's icons: lp:~antoniusriha/ubuntu-mono/trunk. Already requested to merge them into lp:ubuntu-mono, which I assume is the upstream project of lp:ubuntu/ubuntu-mono.
As of version 0.1.11 Tasque already looks for and ships "tasque-panel" icons in hicolor theme. So it's just a matter of merging the mono-chrome icons I created into any of the ubuntu-mono branches.

Antonius, an app can ship its own icons; it doesn't need to have them in ubuntu-mono.

I'd recommend tasque ship a tasque-symbolic icon and use that for its system status menu.
