Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 144829
firefox lacking a small 16x16 rpm package icon ... yet a .deb icon exists

RPM firefox-1.0-8.i386 I might not have assigned this to the correct component. HOwever, my initial instinct is mozilla/firefox. My apologies if this is incorrect. Please advise. I Noticed when I browse the following website which contains a .rpm and a .deb file. The .deb has a debian-style icon associated with it. While the .rpm has the stock icon. It would be nice if we could recognize our own packages. http://alfa.intrak.tuke.sk/~komornik/tasche/fedora/ I have attached a screenshot in the event that the above website is not available.

This is not a browser bug. The browser is faithfully rendering the index page and icons supplied by the web server.
warren: that was my guess also ... feel free to reassign it to the correct component ... as I have no idea where this bug should land.
There is no way this is a firefox bug. The HTML source of the page contains a reference to unknown.gif in one place and deb.gif in another which is what we render: <IMG border="0" src="/icons/back.gif" ALT="[DIR]"> <A HREF="/~komornik/tasche/">Parent Directory</A> 12-Jan-2005 18:26 - <IMG border="0" src="/icons/unknown.gif" ALT="[ ]"> <A HREF="tasche-1.0-3.i386.rpm">tasche-1.0-3.i386.rpm</A> 06-Jan-2005 11:16 45k <IMG border="0" src="/icons/compressed.gif" ALT="[ ]"> <A HREF="tasche_1.0-3.tar.gz">tasche_1.0-3.tar.gz</A> 06-Jan-2005 11:16 40k GZIP compressed docume> <IMG border="0" src="/icons/deb.gif" ALT="[ ]"> <A HREF="tasche_1.0-3_i386.deb">tasche_1.0-3_i386.deb</A> 06-Jan-2005 11:16 41k NOTABUG.
Nice catch caillon. I think this now stands as the worst bug report I've ever filed.
Part of the problem here is the "official" IANA (or some other standards body) recognized use of .rpm is for RealPlayer. Almost every web server on the planet has the MIME type of RealPlayer instead of rpm for .rpm.
