Description Douglas 2026-03-13 00:07:01 UTC
The QT version of Transmission is missing an app icon.

The transmission-qt package ships a .desktop file which expects an icon named "transmission".

Exec=transmission-qt %U
Icon=transmission

However, no such icon was installed. In fact, the only icons I can find are named "transmission-gtk" and "transmission-qt".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install transmission-qt
2. Look for the app in the app launcher or menu
Actual Results:
App has no icon. A placeholder icon is shown instead.

Expected Results:
The package needs to update the "Icon" value in the .desktop file; or ship another icon named "transmission".

Comment 1 Douglas 2026-03-13 00:09:10 UTC
To work around this, I've made a copy of /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/transmission-qt.svg and placed it at /usr/local/share/icons/transmission.svg

After that, the app icon loads as expected.

This has been fixed upstream:

https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/8281

However, the icon is still missing because a previous patch to fix it now reverts it:
