I think they recently accessed items "Today, Yesterday, This Month and Last Month" use the "package_utility_time" icon which seems to be present in opensuse, but is not in for example Arch Linux. There should be an official icon for this, maybe from oxygen? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install KDE 4.9 RC2 on Arch Linux 2. Open Dolphin 3. Check icons for Recently Accessed items Actual Results: Icons are replaced by the white "not-found" dummy icon with the question mark. Expected Results: Should show a proper icon.
This problem does also exist on Gentoo (and probably any other non-OpenSuSE distribution, too). The icon package_utility_time.png cannot be found in any KDE release and googling for it shows only OpenSuSE related matches, so it looks like the author wrongly picked an OpenSuSE specific icon of which he might have thought it would be an KDE icon. KDE provides the icon actions/chronometer which looks similar and could be used here.
Thanks for the bug report! I agree that this should be changed.

Just rebuilding and re-running Dolphin did not reveal this issue, it seems that the old icon "package_utility_time" was still cached somewhere. I hope that it really works on all distros now.

*** Bug 305216 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
David found out (see bug 305216) that the incorrect icon name is used in more places than I thought. I think we should just replace also the remaining "package_utility_time" by "chronometer".

Looking at the announcement screenshot of KDE 4.10 beta 1, it looks like this bug does still exist: http://kde.org/announcements/announce-4.10-beta1.png REOPENing this bug…
grep shows it's not using this. Also it works fine as a new user. I think if you had 4.9 then upgrade, you'll still have the broken icons.
In KDE 4.10, we use different icons for the different 'timeline' places: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/106874/ AFAIK, they are in oxygen-icons. I can't test it at the moment, so I don't know what's going wrong. Do we actually have any evidence that this bug is reproducible except for that screenshot?
(In reply to comment #12) > Do we actually have any evidence that this bug is reproducible except for that screenshot? I'm just building 4.9.80/4.10 beta1 which might take ~3 hours, then I'll be able to confirm.
The problem persists with 4.9.80 using my already existing account. Cannot reproduce using a new account, as the corresponding items don't appear in Dolphin's places panel at all, although Nepomuk is enabled, running, finished indexing… I even re-started the KDE session. Does anyone know why?
OK, I can confirm. If the 'old' icons are in kfileplaces/bookmarks.xml, the 'new' icons are not applied. You can work around the issue manually by removing the "timeline:" entries from that file, but I see that this should better be fixed inside Dolphin. In principle, it would be better if we opened a new report about that, because this is unrelated to the issue that this report was about. Recycling of old reports for new problems makes bug reports unreadable in the long term. About the problem you see when you create a new user: no idea, sorry.
Thinking about it again, I think that there is no good solution for the problem. If we change the icons in kfileplaces/bookmarks.xml, we also overwrite any custum icons that the user has chosen for the "timeline" entries. This is obviously not an option.

Try to disable and then re-enable indexing, see https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/107464/. A fix for that issue has already been provided and will be committed soon.

So this issue only remains for existing KDE profiles…
Thanks. Does that mean that you get the correct 'Places' icons for a) the new user, b) the existing user, or both?
(In reply to comment #19) > Thanks. Does that mean that you get the correct 'Places' icons for > > a) the new user, > b) the existing user, > > or both? Sorry, I wasn't clear enough: # for a new user: → Start KDE → Start Dolphin → No timeline icons/entries are shown at all → Close Dolphin → Wait until Nepomuk starts indexing → Start Dolphin again → *Correct* timeline entries/icons are shown # for an existing user → Start KDE → Start Dolphin → *Wrong* timeline icons are shown for the timeline entries → Close Dolphin → Remove 'timeline' entries from ~/.kde4/share/apps/kfileplaces/bookmarks.xml → Start Dolphin again → *Correct* timeline entries/icons are shown The question is, whether it is possible to make use of kconf_update to remove the old timeline entries which make use of the wrong icon…?!
(In reply to comment #20) > The question is, whether it is possible to make use of kconf_update to > remove the old timeline entries which make use of the wrong icon…?! The problem is that this would also overwrite any custom icon choices that the user made for these entries, so I think that we cannot do that. Closing this report again because the issue that has originally been reported here is fixed.

And why can't the chronometer icon just be used for migrated accounts? Was the icon removed from Oxygen or what? If yes: Poke the Oxygen team to re-add it.
(In reply to comment #22) > And why can't the chronometer icon just be used for migrated accounts? If I'm not mistaken, the chronometer icon is being used for migrated accounts. If an earlier version stored that icon name in kfileplaces/bookmarks.xml, then it should also be used by a newer version.

Should this be resolved now? I am using KDE 4.11 fromt the Kubuntu Backports PPA, the Icons are still missing. (see attachment) Please note: On the screenshot, you can see that i am using KFaenza Icon Theme. The Problem also exists if i switch to oxygen and restart dolphin. Cheers, Uli

(see attachment) Please see the earlier comments 15 and 16 in this report. The incorrect icons are stored in a file in your home directory. Upgrading to a newer KDE version does not change anything about that - you have to edit the file. Sorry for the inconvenience.

SRY, i meant <bookmark href="timeline:...."> ;-) It is important that dolphin is closed while doing this. (In reply to comment #27) > Thanks for your kind answer, that helped!
