Public bug reported: version 0.5+15.10.20150817-0ubuntu3
The system is running Xenial + unity8-desktop-session-mir to boot into the Unity8 session. What happens is that all the .click apps I manually installed (via "sudo click install --user=<user> --allow-unauthenticated <click_pkg>") have an incomplete XDG_DATA_DIRS set. If I open the terminal app and run "env", the value of XDG_DATA_DIRS is /opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/users/<username_here>/com.ubuntu.terminal Now, the UITK theme icons provider uses QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation) http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/staging/view/1826/src/Ubuntu/Components/plugin/unitythemeiconprovider.cpp#L79 and since the Linux implementation of GenericDataLocation is https://github.com/qtproject/qtbase/blob/5.5/src/corelib/io/qstandardpaths_unix.cpp#L309 that causes the application to only look for themes which are inside its own app directory. As a consequence, click apps fails to load theme icons :) NOTE: this doesn't happen for apps that come preinstalled, i.e. system- settings, webbrowser-app, and unity8-dash. They can display theme icons just fine. ** Affects: ubuntu-app-launch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Ted Gould (ted) Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1541037 Title: Xenial+Unity8 session: click apps can't load theme icons because of missing paths in XDG_DATA_DIRS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-app-launch/+bug/1541037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
