gtk3 apps on kde are often without proper icons on f20, I *suspect* something changed or not working as expected with Net/FallbackIconTheme In particular, xsettings-kde, sets Net/FallbackIconTheme to gnome. evince, for example, doesn't show any of it's usual symbolic toolbar icons when using kde's default oxygen-icons. If I set icon theme to Fedora/gnome or modify oxygen/index.theme Inherits=gnome,hicolor then it works again.

Oh, eep, googling finds: http://osdir.com/ml/commits.gnome/2013-06/msg06019.html "Deprecate and ignore gtk-fallback-icon-theme The standard icon themes have built in fallbacks." A little unfortunate, but I suppose we can patch oxygen with the workaround mentioned in comment #1 Unless, there's some other better suggestion?
Inheriting the GNOME theme in Oxygen makes no sense whatsoever. The same way the implied fallback for KDE apps is Oxygen, the implied fallback for GNOME/GTK+ apps needs to be the GNOME theme. KDE apps should not fall back to the GNOME theme, that just doesn't make sense. In addition, it wouldn't fix the problem for people using themes inheriting neither Oxygen nor GNOME. It doesn't make sense to expect all of them to inherit the GNOME theme nor to provide the non-freedesktop.org symbolic icons. Net/FallbackIconTheme is REQUIRED for GTK+ to work properly with any icon theme that does not inherit the GNOME theme. The freedesktop.org icon theme specifies nowhere that themes must inherit the GNOME theme nor that they have to provide the same nonstandard icons. The upstream patch breaks all the non-GNOME freedesktop.org-compliant icon themes for GTK+ apps and needs to be reverted.
Oh, and if you really want to get rid of the setting, why not just hardcode it to "gnome" instead of dropping the functionality completely? That's what everyone (even xsettings-kde) sets Net/FallbackIconTheme to anyway.
I would tend to agree with that assessment, in particular, I don't think it unreasonable to ask that gtk3 apps to implicitly fallback to gnome-icon-theme somehow. I don't care about the implementation details, whether that means re-implementing Net/FallbackIconTheme or some hard-coded fallback in gtk3, or some other even better idea.
This might be related (already partially linked in comment 2): https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2013-July/msg00000.html
That is a separate issue (and easier to identify and fix, applications that use that deprecated stock icons api fail to build)
Should be fixed in 3.10.2 with https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?h=gtk-3-10&id=d25ee710715c60801b29289c4a0ee85fb337579c
Thanks.
Testing with gtk3-3.10.2-1.fc20.x86_64 , I'm still seeing what appears to be a fair number of missing icons in evince, per the screenshot posted in comment #1
We'll have to look into how those buttons are constructed - maybe they are not doing generic fallback for icon names.
Does oxygen not ship standard icons like go-up, go-down ?
It does, $ rpm -ql oxygen-icon-theme | grep -e 'go-[ud]' /usr/share/icons/oxygen/128x128/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/128x128/actions/go-up.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/go-down-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/go-up-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/actions/go-up.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/22x22/actions/go-down-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/22x22/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/22x22/actions/go-up-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/22x22/actions/go-up.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/actions/go-down-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/actions/go-up-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/actions/go-up.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/actions/go-down-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/actions/go-up-search.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/actions/go-up.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/go-down.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/go-up.png
