Hi,
I am sending this mail in response to this bug[0], regarding the
lookup if themes and icons inside the home directory. The spec
describes that apps need to search in $XDG_DATA_DIRS/icons, and
$HOME/.icons (according to the spec: 'for backwards compatibility'),
but not in $XDG_DATA_HOME/icons.
If $HOME/.icons only exists for backwards-compatibility, then
user-installed themes and icons should be located in $XDG_DATA_HOME,
right?
Regards,
Stephan
