Description pkoz 2016-01-26 17:52:31 UTC
Description of problem:
This is a proposal.

I propose to include a few icons in the pulseaudio-equalizer package instead of requiring the gnome-icon-theme package.

If one does not use gnome (e.g. I use mate) then gnome-icon-theme is just a 10 MB size useless dead ballast. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Name        : pulseaudio-equalizer
Version     : 2.7
Release     : 16.fc23
Architecture: noarch

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 19:23:29 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 11:06:47 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 3 pkoz 2019-01-01 18:41:02 UTC
I would like to refine the original request:
what about requiring a few alternate icon themes besides the gnome one in the pulseaudio-equalizer RPM package?

For example I have these on my system which all include the multimedia-volume-control.png file:
. adwaita-icon-theme
. mate-icon-theme

I also have breeze-icon-theme, although it has a differently named icon file multimedia-volume-control.svg.

The advantage would be that the huge gnome-icon-theme would not be pulled in unnecessarily when one needs pulseaudio-equalizer but has a desktop manager other than gnome.
