LibreOffice 5.3.3 icons not modified #151

ghost · 2017-05-30T04:10:34Z

Hi,

I'm on Fedora 25 Workstation.

I installed LibreOffice 5.3.3 by downloading the .rpm from the LibreOffice web site.

LibreOffice suite is installed in /opt

Unlike other icons theme I tried, La Capitaine is not modifying the whole LibreOffice set of icons (Writer, Calc, Draw, etc.)

I use the Copr repository. But I also tried to just copy from Git La Capitaine in /usr/share/icons with the same result.

Can you do something about it ?

Thanks.

Will this troubleshooting guide help you?

keeferrourke · 2017-05-30T13:24:09Z

@1claude you should try installing LibreOffice from the official Fedora repositories. Binaries installed from websites usually do not have *.desktop files that allow for easy theming.

LibreOffice 5.3 is not yet packaged on Fedora, but it should be soon enough if you're patient. In the meantime, either manually edit the *.desktop files located in /usr/share/applications according to the troubleshooting guide that @linusg linked to, or do the following:

sudo dnf remove libreoffice*
sudo dnf install libreoffice

Closing this because I can't do anything about it, but feel free to discuss.

Tell me why icons like Numix Circle, Paper and others can modify LibreOffice 5.3 and not La Capitaine.

That's the question.

linusg · 2017-05-30T16:46:11Z

See, the fault is not on La Capitaine's site. @keeferrourke already explained what to do. It must be your setup - works fine for me:

To narrow down the problem, may you post the content of some LibreOffice .desktop files?
And maybe a screenshot of the icons with Numix enabled and one with La Capitaine enabled? Hard to believe, but behind the scenes most icons themes do the same things...

ghost · 2017-05-30T17:00:23Z

In order Numix, Paper, La Capitaine.

keeferrourke · 2017-05-30T21:10:16Z

@1claude please paste the content of your libreoffice-*.desktop files. You will likley find them under /usr/share/applications.

ghost · 2017-05-30T21:37:59Z

@keeferrourke What do you mean by "content" ?

By right clicking on Writer, for example, if it's what you mean, here's what I get in the /usr/share/applications

/opt/libreoffice5.3/share/xdg/writer.desktop

keeferrourke · 2017-05-30T22:22:50Z

@1claude a *.desktop file is a text file.

For instance, if your desktop file for Libreoffice Writer is located at /opt/libreoffice5.3/share/xdg/writer.desktop, as you say above, then paste the contents of that file here. Do the same for the other desktop files.

My wild and total noob guess in that field... is that maybe the icon set is looking for LibreOffice, Writer, Calc, etc. only, without any numbers at the end, like LibreOffice5.3.

keeferrourke · 2017-05-30T22:47:39Z

yep, sorry for my initial assumptions. It does seem that Libreoffice is using new icon names for their RPM distribution. I will push a fix soon.

ghost · 2017-05-30T22:48:58Z

Just glad I can help. And find out I'm not crazy. :-) Le 2017-05-30 à 18:47, Keefer Rourke a écrit :

@1claude try pulling the latest changes from git. Commit 17a5e71 should fix it :)

Please, please don't use a new icon name for every new minor version, please... @LibreOffice
