We already have the location, and it is standard: /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/ There are over 300 pixmaps in there, a good deal of which are icons. As for a "keeper",there are several alternate icons packages. I think it would be a mistake to try to centralize icon maintenance. > All of the mini icons and whatnot from the various packages ought to > be consolidated into one icon package. Why? It sounds so hegemonic! That person would have to maintain icons for every possible application/service. > Other packages that require icons could suggest it, and the menu > system could use them if they're present, or not if they're not. The current flow is for application maintainers to bundle icons with their apps if possible, I believe. [snip] > Every package with a menu should have an icon. That's what's happening AFAIK, but the package maintainers are responsible. I don't know how their handling sizing issues and bit-depth issues but that's an issue for the debian-policy group I think. > The emacs icon is an example of one that's way too huge. :-) Yes, I use xemacs.xpm from the distribution, I put it in /usr/local/X11/include/pixmaps/ . .....A.
