Description magnux77 2019-03-04 12:07:39 CET

Description of problem:

Why icon theme Breeze (Brise) is not the default of Xfce for a better coherence design between different GUI of Mageia. This theme is a little (if not, much) composite with "flat design" action buttons and old school web browser button, it should be more graphically unified (i can not use it as it is !). However this theme should be the one of the distribution.

People who install Mageia not always know the good match between GUI and the capabilities of their machines. If they want to change of GUI, everything change graphically, even the icons, like it was an other distribution. This should not be the case within the same distribution.

I have not checked, but I think all GTK+ based desktops uses Adwaita as a default icon theme. It is not easy to have unified look between Qt and GTK+ based DEs.

Reassigning back to bug squad as this is not Xfce only issue.

Changing severity to enhancement, because, IINM, Mageia never had such unified look in all DEs, and reassigning to all packagers collectively in case one of them wants to tackle this issue.
